For being “on the lam” for four years, he sure looks pretty healthy.

There is a Sheltie locally that was in a similar situation for years. Nicknamed “Shelley” because she was most frequently sighted at a Shell gas station on the edge of town, she had people putting food and water out for her all over. Nobody could catch her, not animal control nor animal loving private individuals. She “ turned herself in” after injuring a foot, just came right up to a person who had been leaving food one day. She ended up at a no kill shelter for rehabilitation and was adopted by one of her fans.

Thge Gothamist had a short story about him:

>>Ghost Dog had been allowed to stay in the park because he had never posed a threat to any parkgoers. “We realized early on that he wasn’t posing a threat to anyone, so what we’ve done for the past two years is track him,” Casey told the Post. “He was smart. He had a schedule. He had about 12 people a day feeding him.” He was also friendly with many of the other dogs who frequented the park, often coming out to play with them.<<

Seems he tried to *befriend* other dogs in the park....and appers that he wanted to be part of a pack....hope that comes to be and his forever owners will treat him well.
