This sweet boy seen in video being loving, and has been kenneled with another dog so he seems to be dog friendly. Here is the link to his video: https://youtu.be/ddM5fMnxNlg The shelter told us, 'At the time of impound, Butch was growling and barking, and once at the shelter, was observed to be displaying fearful behavior. Since coming into our care, Butch has been making improvements and has begun to interact well with staff (as seen in the pics you have) and participating in playgroups. Although he has been marked as Needs Rescue, Butch is not marked 'Red' nor does he have a Deadline at this time.' However, his status can change without notice simply because they are full and he has been there more than 30 days. Being 'Rescue Needs' means he will be added to the euthanasia list, possibly today, and wil;l then need to be saved usually 72 hours or less. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting Butch, please contact the shelter immediately by calling (951) 358-7387 and reference his applicable ID and also use his listing link to express interest (but this will not place a hold).
