I would ask the restaurant manager if he/she had any other information, yes. In this particular case, the people knew where the puppies were, so to speak.
“I never look at that thing. It is just a community service I provide for my customers to buy and sell stuff. But if you see anything there that offends or there is no contact information, feel free to remove it.”
If there were something criminal on the bulletin board, and it came to my attention, I would approach the manager and let him/her know in no uncertain terms that, since the bulletin board is in his/her restaurant, I would expect him/her to keep tabs on what is posted on it. If he/she doesn't have time for that, then the bulletin board should be removed.

I’m pretty sure their butts are covered. This gets attached to every message that gets sent through their system.

And what would the restaurant owner have told you in this case? Maybe he would have said, well, sure looks odd, but there IS an address.

That whole statement, and especially the last one, is one of the most goofy, anti-freedom, anti-personal-responsibility statements I have ever seen on this particular site (other than quickly zotted threads).
Based on your statement, I can only assume you are voting for Obama, and proud of it.
Life is risk.
