The deadline passed and no one came out to forcibly remove him. It is not his land and he is now considered trespassing. Usually when I see him, he is smiling, but today he was tired from being up most of the night working to get this dogs ready for a move - but to where. By noon, there was still no solution and then suddenly, mid-afternoon, a phone call from his brother in London to a local farmer had results.
Avery will relocate to another piece of property, something more isolated than where he is now, and will be allowed to remain there for three weeks until something more permanent is found.
He called me after looking at the new place to say "It's paradise. It feels like home."
The move will take place tomorrow, but must be completed by 1 p.m. At that time an attorney, county deputies and animal control will show up to remove him if he's not gone.
