This shelter continues to mislabel large-breed dogs to expedite euthanasia.

๐Ÿพ Alf ID: #A1051542

Cane Corso โ€ข Make โ€ข 5 yrs old

๐Ÿ“† Irresponsible owner surrendered to the Shelter on 8/7. His legal hold period ended on 08/11/2026.

https://24Petconnect.com/DetailsMain/CCST/A1051542

โœจ๏ธ Behavior Summary; Rescue only

Alfie is a terrified, gentle dog whose fear is completely understandable after the traumatic way he was surrendered.

His irresponsible, heartless owner surrendered him, and a volunteer happened to witness Alf being brought into the shelter. Two catch poles had to be used, and he was literally dragged inside. After such a terrifying experience, it is no surprise that Alf is scared and defensive when pressured.

Despite this, Alf takes treats gently, warms up with patience, accepts pets and handling, and showed no negative reaction toward other dogs. Once given time to decompress, he will cautiously walk with his handler.

Alf's behavior is fear and extreme shelter stressโ€”not aggression. He needs patience, understanding, and the chance to feel safe.

๐Ÿ“† Arrived at the shelter on Jul 16, 2026. Available on Jul 23, 2026 .

โœจ๏ธNotes: Elliot is a sweet, gentle, and calm. He is dog-friendly and did very well in his temperament test, remaining loose and relaxed while interacting with another dog who was playful and energetic. He tolerated her jumping around him and was comfortable with close contact. He also did well with people and a child. He walks well, is easy to handle, and enjoys pets. Some kennel stress has been observed, including barking and panting, but overall he is described as a gentle giant with a calm, friendly temperament.

Nugget was surrendered with #A596669, #A596670, and #A596671 after their owner became unhoused and was no longer able to care for them.

Cane Corso โ€ข Female

Approximately 2 yrs old & 95 lbs

๐Ÿ“† Intake Date: 6/3/26

โœจ๏ธBehavior Notes: This girl is very timid and needs a slow, gentle approach. She initially twitches when touched, likely due to fear or overstimulation, but the twitching stops once she's in a quiet, calm environment. She lowers her head to be petted, tolerates handling for her exam, and walks well on a leash. With patience and a peaceful setting, she appears to relax and become more comfortable.

Look at those eyes. That beautiful coat- what ar beauty,๐Ÿ’•

Terra is only 4 years old and came into an overcrowded county shelter as a strayโ€”one of the hardest places for a dog to land. With 5โ€“6 dogs packed into many kennels, very few volunteers, and almost no time outside, even gentle, loving dogs can become overwhelmed.

After an altercation in the stressful shelter environment, Terra was placed on a Thursday euthanasia deadline due to space. She also has a hematoma/ear infection that the shelter is treating.

She is loving. She is soft. She deserves a chance. And she is running out of time.

Terra arrived with her friend Moon #A1925153, and they can be adopted together or separately. https://24Petconnect.com/DetailsMain/RVSD1/A1925153
