take him to your local animal shelter or vet and ask them to scan for a microchip. if it has one, the owner can be located, otherwise you may have heartache in time when the owner says, that's my dog and your attached to him. if he has a chip, its' not a guarantee that the ower does want him but it's ther right thing to do before you "just keep him"
most states you have to prove you tried to find the owner- contacted shelters and posted signs etc for what ever your shelter holding period is (5-10 days)
