I don't have the information you want. However, I did volunteer work some
years ago when I was on the board of directors of the local Humane Society
(East Texas). In cases such as you described, we would contact the
sheriff's office and he or a deputy would accompany us. It would be a good
idea to check into your state and/or local laws to see if you could set up a
similar system.
