Beast is urgent and in need of immediate attention. This 11-week-old Shepherd mix is currently at the Kern County Animal Services - Bakersfield Shelter, facing an upper respiratory infection that places him at high risk for euthanasia. He’s been at the shelter since June 16, 2026, and adopting him could save his life. He is a small, male pup with a short coat featuring a tricolor pattern of brown, black, and white. While he is not house trained yet, Beast is up to date on vaccinations and ready to find his forever home. It's crucial for him to get out of the shelter environment as soon as possible. If you can open your home to him, please reach out to the Companion Animal Protection Society. Fostering or adopting not only helps Beast but also contributes to alleviating the overcrowding in the shelter. Your chance to make a difference is here. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
