    Default Awol Collie

    OH found a very thin stray collie at work (rspca didn't want to know, as it was a stray) so instead of leaving him behind he took him home (no-one turned up looking for him), well last night he got out of the garden and we can't find him anywhere, does like cars and not so sure of people or other dogs, our wee one is upset her dog is gone so if anyone see's a stray black collie with a black and white collar can you please give me a shout. (lower pulteney area) Thanks.

    Default Stray

    Just wanted to clarify this matter. The HIGHLAND COUNCIL have the responsibility for all stray dogs in Caithness and not the SCOTTISH SPCA (not RSPCA). The Council has a contract with the SSPCA to kennel any strays for them and all strays should be uplifted by their Dog warden. The dogs are kept for 7 days to allow the owners to reclaim their dogs and then they become the property of the Scottish SPCA who then can rehome the dogs. If an owner comes forward looking for this dog then legally you will have to give it back to them.

    Well done, Miss Mack and NLP. It is heartwarming to read about people who care enough to stop and help an animal in need -- too many find it easier to ignore them and walk away.

    Let's hope that the heartless person who dumped this poor dog has it on their conscience for a long time to come.

    Totally agree Margaret. Here's hoping that this poor dog gets the home and love it deserves.
