My Mini Me: The Shaggy Dog Capture

So for the past 3 days there has been this cute little shaggy dog roaming around the neighborhood. At first I was like awe, poor thing is missing from someones home. I assumed he would find his way back home until I saw him again yesterday. Since Daisy is in heat I am sure we are the happening house and he wants to come in and make sweet love to our Pomeranian. I was thinking if we had a fence I would keep him and feed him and hang up posters until someone claimed him. Well that plan did not work since we do not have a fence. Sooo, we woke up this morning and I was sure the dog would be long gone. Umm no, he was sitting at my back door. So I thought about feeding him because surely he was hungry since he has been roaming for days. I thought to myself after we get back from the store I will feed him. I start backing out of the garage and find him digging a hole in our flower bed! UMMM no sir! Our bond ended there. Came home from the store to find him sitting in the front yard. So after my little yappy PMSing dog will not hush up because she knows there is another dog in our yard I decide to call the pound. They knew exactly what dog I was talking about. Apparently other neighbors have called as well. I told the dispatcher I would put him on a leash until they arrived and of course she was making sure I was okay with that especially if he was vicious. So, Skylar and I headed out to plant a trap in Skylar's little playhouse. Put some food and water in there for him, meanwhile Daisy is going absolutely NUTS inside the house. Annoying to say the least. So I put a leash on him and just hang outside with him until the pound shows up. Which was probably 5 minutes from the time I called. I was very impressed. The dog went up to the animal control people but once the lady picked him up he went a little crazy and jumped down growling and showing his teeth. I told Sky to step back from the dog. He liked me I guess because he came back to me, I guess he thought we were still bonding. They put their leash on the dog and tried again to cover him with a blanket and pick him up. He did the same thing with the man and jumped down and the dog got out of their leash. So, the dog comes back to me again and I calmly put the leash on the dog then the animal control guy puts his leash on the dog. I suggested I try to pick him up since he likes me. They were like well if you want and you are okay with that. So I cover him with the mans jacket and throw him in the pin in the back of the truck. I think I found my calling. He did start growling and squirming but I did not let go. Probably the determination in me. So no more digging my flower bed up for Shaggy dog. Here are some pics from our journey.
