There's definitely stray dogs in the US. It probably varies a bit by location though. I've not seen any in an urban area but plenty of rural areas have them running around, sometimes in packs.
We also came across them from time to time in Afghanistan.
- alistairSH 3y agoAre they actually stray, or just allowed to run loose? Friends of mine have a farm in central VA. There is a pack of dogs that crosses their property, but they aren't truly stray - one of the neighbors "owns" them (I use "owns" loosely, as they aren't kept as house pets in the normal suburban sense of the word).
- LanceH 3y agoThere are most definitely stray dogs in the US. But the US is very big and varied in climate, terrain, and population density. I'm in the suburbs and a stray dog would be caught and taken to a shelter. There are some coyotes, though.
