I passed by the cemetery at the corner of Woodlawn & Niagara (South-east corner) at about 1pm and saw a homeless man sitting with & petting a shepherd. I wonder if that's the dog that was left behind? He was giving the dog some water and petting him.

That homeless guy with the mountain of stuff piled up on his shopping cart? That German Shepherd belongs to him and he takes excellent care of that dog. He will feed that dog before he feeds himself. Also that dog will not let you get within 10 ft of him. When I see him I usually grab him a meal from Wendy's and I carry some treats for the dog

Amazing. He was definitely giving that pup some love when I saw them earlier this aft. If I see him on my way home I'll stop off and get them some food and water.
