Lost dog found wandering street, owner sought

MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ – A dog named Charlie was found wandering down Federal Road. The dog was not wearing identification aside from a collar that bore his name.

Authorities are seeking the animal’s owner. A representative noted, “If you know where Charlie belongs, call 732-521-0222.”

Police are concerned about the lack of contact information on Charlie’s collar. The situation has prompted a call to action for any potential owners.

Charlie has been described as having brown eyes, a characteristic that may help in identifying him. The Monroe Township Police Department is ready to assist in reuniting Charlie with his owner.

If necessary, Charlie may be deemed available for adoption or further care if his owner does not come forward.

Local residents have shown interest in the dog’s welfare since his discovery. The police department continues to emphasize the importance of pet identification.

Charlie is currently under the department’s supervision while efforts to locate his owner are underway.
