Claxton Police took into custody a male German Shepherd recently. The “crime?” He was lost and hungry.But instead of “jail” at the dog pound, the dog was taken under the wing of a compassionate citizen until his owners can be found.The gentle dog was found wandering along U.S. 301 in Claxton, near McDonalds, in mid-September, said Claxton Police Chief Edward Oglesby.The dog had apparently been missing for a while, since he was thin, he said.
