I "Found" Another Dog

Re: I "Found" Another Dog
Sorry for the huge pictures. Anyway, this dog has been coming around my office nearly everyday for the past few weeks. He's the sweetest thing and just wants to come in, check things out and sleep on the floor. I've looked into it and apparently he "lives" across the main road, just a few houses down, but is an outside dog. He has no collar or tags and has fleas and I believe worms. My problem is, technically, there is a family a few houses down that feeds him (but doesn't take care of him) and my H says I can't just "steal" someone elses dog and take to a rescue. I don't think he belongs to anyone and I feel bad for the little guy.
What do you think?

Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.

He's cute, can we keep him?
If he's always outside and has never had a collar on, I'd assume he doesn't belong to anyone. Or at least not to anyone who cares if he comes home.
Would you be absolutely heartbroken if you took him in and then had to return him if Lost Dog posters popped up?

I'll meet him at the airport!
He really is adorable. I agree with Cali. He must be miserable with fleas and sadness.

KEEP HIM. While I don't noramally advocate stealing, and certainly not people's pets, he is definately NOT an outside dog. He has such short hair and those pleading little eyes . . . no collar or tags to link him to his people, and fleas and possibly worms? Oh, keep him. Please. So I can stop tearing up about it inappropriately.
God help me if a wittle doggie like that ever shows up on my doorstep. My cats would hate me, but I don't think I have it in me to turn him away.
I also feel like the people that "own" him do nothing to help him and he he needs some TLC and a nice dry home to hunker down in, especially since it's hurricane/rainy season. I really want to keep him but I'm also worried about my 2BR appartment and 2 cats, plus Mr. Clucks on the way. I think the best thing for him would be to take him to a rescue. A dog as cute as that will be adopted right away (I hope).

So I called the APL to get some info. and they told me that in the state of Florida, even if the dog is not tagged or chipped, the dog is considered property and it can also be considered theft if I take someone's dog. I didn't give them any info. about the dog being owned, but I think it's part of their spiel.
I called the only no-kill shelter in the area and got no answer, but I sent an email to the folks (the one email link included 10 different people) there, asking if I could bring the pup in today. I'm still waiting to hear back from them.
