You're starting to sound like that smoothmarine guy and all his stories.
They trapped him last night in my crate and tied it up nice, before I got the message and could get there, he flipped the crate over, pushed the tray out far enough and squeezed through the bigger holes in the bottom of the crate leaving a nice curved bent part where his back and body stretched the wire to the side! UGH! I saw him again this a.m. but everytime he got near the crate someone drove by and spooked him. I had to leave to go to work but I'll try again later. Some benedryl might help. He is at least 25-30 lbs and you could barely see his ribs so he is eating good. If I catch him some benadryl and a muzzle as a precaution would be a good idea....at least it would calm him from trying to escape.
Was someone looking for a nice Basset mix? SecondHopeRescue.org has a nice one, check it out. you will need an approved application and home visit plus $200 to adopt but they have the awesomest dogs! Also they are vetted, H/W tested and on preventative, spayed/neutered, parasite free, and microchipped. Many are housetrained.

So close but yet so far! Hopefully he wont be too afraid to go back in the crate. Good Luck!

You really need a humane trap like Luvscats offered. Cover it with a blanket or something so he really can't see that cage/trap part. I wouldn't give the dog anything or even muzzle him until you're certain he will not get out...that would be a disaster if he escaped with a muzzle on.
He could belong to somebody who just lets him run and that is one of his "favorites" along his daily route.
I think you're talking about Stella, the dog that won Best Kisser at the Petco event? She found a grreat new home last weekend!

He might consider my trap on the small size, but my offer still stands. Ifyou need a trap give me a call. I'll pm you my home number. I'll also be at the California Petco tomorrow doing cat/kitten adoptions. We could meet up there if you think the trap may help.
I got with in 3 feet of it the other day but I think we are going to need a net gun as the dog has already been trapped once and got away, and though many people have been cooperative, too many others are feeding him when they pull up and others are leaving huge pieces of fried chicken laying around. I found some instructions on building a net gun for under $100 but it is going to take awhile. Does anyone know anyone who has one? I made a catch pole to get him out of it but he is to shifty to let me catch him with that.

Has confinement issues..
OH I can't believe no one can catch this pup
Beagles are so smart... I thought the neighbors dog was letting mine out of his pen because she's so big but thaay short little rascal is quite the escape artist
Mine is snuggling on the ocuch with a sick kid as we speak. He ate a rawhide in less than 5 minutes and cuted a piece of hamburger from me with his sad brown eyes!!
I love my beagle!!!!

I tried again on Saturday. He was at the edge of the parking lot but he ran and with traffic picking up I was afraid I would cause him to get hit. I would feel horrible if by trying to help him I caused him to get killed. Luvscats had a good idea but after getting closer to him, I think that trap will be too small to snare him. Hugs4dogs: If you can think of another idea and need help, I can meet you there and help you.

Poor dog is probably freaked the hell out right now.As long as people are feeding him the way they are, I agree, a trap is not going to work. I kept closing the crate so he would get hungry and when I went there it would be open. There is someone(s) around there who doesn't want the dog but doesn't want him caught either which is hindering our rescue efforts. Some people think the dog will be hauled off and euthanized and have no idea about our rescue rehabilitating efforts. I know he is eating and there is a fresh water spring in the woods nearby but I still felt bad I haven't been able to go up there, having some car troubles but taking it in of Friday to be fixed.

One of the workers at the market finally got to the dog and took it home before all the snow storms.

Great! Is the worker going to be able to keep him/her? Hope he/she is finally in a good home.
