Yes, I've just read about poor gorgeous Bobby. I'm sure there must be someone who can give him a loving home and the chance he needs. If there are no other dogs and no children I would think it was OK. Presume leave him with what he's stolen initially if he's shirty and take extra care he can't steal. I'm sure gradually he'll change when he can trust.
We are keeping fingers and paws crossed for you Bobby. I'm sure Aunty Glenys will work her usual miracle. You sound quite a good boy for a youngster, whoose been passed about and whatever else, really
