Can An Animal Rescue Take Back A Dog A Year Later That Was Found As A Stray?

I asked a variation of this question before, but a lot has come up / come out that makes the situation much worse. Location: Georgia, USA.

Essentially, a year ago I surrendered our dog. He had a major health issue that due to a health emergency we couldnt' continue to afford.

A year later, I was called because he was picked up as a stray after roaming the streets. This shelter was 2 hours away, and I was the owner still registered on his chip.

We went, picked him up. He was never rechipped by the rescue, never had his papers transferred to a new owner, and no one was looking for him in the area he was found, or in our local city. The rescue never posted anything about him being missing either.

We have had him vetted again, and are currently treating the issues he had before again.

I want to make a post about the situation on facebook because this rescue is known for unhealthy practices and unhealthy animals. I feel like it would help others who have had bad experiences speak up, and hopefully warn others away from experiencing the same things.

I just dont want to get into a position where they could potentially take him back despite him being picked up as a stray.

a year ago, I did sign paperwork surrendering my rights. I also signed paperwork at the shelter taking responsibility for him again now.

To add because I forgot:

- His registration papers still list me as his owner
- His microchip is still registered to me as the owner
- His up to date vet records are also in my name
- Theoretically, he was adopted out with a contract to someone that would have given ownership rights to the adopter.
