Meet Bourbon, an urgent case needing immediate attention. Bourbon is a young Lhasa Apso and Border Terrier mix, just 13 months old and currently at the Kern County Animal Services - Bakersfield Shelter. He requires a calm forever or foster home where he can recover from a temporary medical condition. Bourbon has been at the shelter since July 30, 2026, which has put him at a high risk for euthanasia. With his beautiful white and cream coat tinged with apricot, he is small in size and ready to find a loving home. Bourbon has been vaccinated and is looking for a place where he can feel safe and loved. If you're interested in helping him, please contact the Companion Animal Protection Society (CAPS). They can assist with the adoption process, and it's crucial that you reach out as soon as possible. Don't wait—his time is running out. Every moment counts for Bourbon.
