Unhappy Who do i call?..

A couple weeks ago i was driving by the WaWa in Charlotte Hall in St.Mary's county and I saw a dog walking across the road.I called my mom and asked if there was anyone I could call but it was a Sunday and she said it probabley belonged to someone.Last night I was at the same WaWa and the dog was in the parking lot this time.

It is very obvious the animal does not have a home,and if it does then shame on them for the care of the dog.He looks like he hasn't eaten in weeks and his nails are all grown out and twisted in different directions.He just looked so pitiful I bought him a can of dog food and gave it to him.I would have loved to take him with me until I could find out who to call but my mom would have killed me.He looks like a beagle,maybe a mix.

I tried googling the humane society and found a number for St.Mary's but it turned out to be some catering service.I don't want to call the pound..everyone keeps telling me they will put him to sleep.Any suggestions as to who I should call?If the dog was still in the area after two weeks I wouldn't be suprised to find him there again.I would just like to have someone pick him up so the poor thing doesnt starve to death.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks

Harsh reality, but the dog is better off with Animal Control than wandering around in a parking lot or on the street.

I didn't read it all, I stopped after the second sentence. My eyes hurt. And you don't use the space bar.

There are some organizations that take in strays other than the humane society. I can't recall any names at this moment but you may be able to do a google search on one of these as well.
