I've done the same many times, tho' under different circumstances. Last winter I found a stray dachsund/mix on the verge of a brutal blizzard herein Chicago. I took in the dog, then speaking with the neighbors near where the dog was found I suprisingly discovered he was one of two! I went to the local shelter to discover that his twin was scheduled for destruction that day, so I "adopted" the second. I had to pay to spring him from jail ($35) After many weeks, I was able to find a home for both, keeping them together. I always try to find a home for wayward animals. Failing that (none so far), here on the mainland we have a good selection of no-kill shelters. I hope you can find a good home for him...he looks like a good boy. Good Luck, Andy.
