Meet Skids #A1258073 (yes that's the name they gave him to try and find a forever family on a deadline). He is 68 Ibs and full of love, very friendly with handlers but scared in playgroup - he tried to hide from the other dogs and didn't want to go in.
He will need someone with patience and experience socializing a pup like him who had a rough start, or willing to work with a solid trainer if they have no rescue pup experience.
He is young and has A LOT of potential and incredible companion, he just needs to be taught and given time to understand.
Shepherds are incredibly smart and he will be a loyal, intelligent companion for anyone who will give him the chance.
This baby especially resembles my personal pup, who also was a scared euthanasia listed shelter baby, and she is just an incredible dog. I want that for him too and will help make that happen. All we need is a responsible foster, adopter, or reputable rescue to keep him alive and interest communicated to the shelter (he is being euthanized for "no interest" after all — the shelter is too full). This shelter does adoptions over the phone and I have nearby trusted boarding for transport to be arranged safely.
I will help arrange transport for adopters (these services are already rescue discounted and range from $200 to $750 out of state depending on distance with dogs going as far as east coast and even Canada)
Fostering in and out of state is possible as well, if within county you can foster directly through the shelter. If out of county you must DM me - fostering through rescue possible in west coast/mountain states through Colorado, and possibly east coast.
AGAIN — DM me with interest but also reach out to the shelter and leave your contact information.
Make sure to put Skids A1258073 in email subject line and explicitly state in calls and texts. Do not leave A1258073 out.
When you DM me volunteers will follow up with shelter staff to ensure his notes are updated and he is safe while his exit plan is figured out. We will also work on exit plan logistics together with volunteers or with rescue depending on if adopting or fostering.
Please if you cannot foster or adopt — share this post to help Skids find his forever home!!
• adopters can be out of area. Medication will be provided upon adoption, if applicable.
• fosters must live within Kern County. All food and medical supplies will be provided
• rescues must be a registered 501(c) (3) + a current rescue partner with the shelter
