A4970234 Bert | Chihuahua Mix
Channel: United Hope for Animals
Date: 2016-07-31

A4970234 Bert is an agreeable, handsome 10-year-old black-and-silver male Chihuahua mix who came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on July 7th as a stray from West Covina. Weighing 14 lbs, Bert seems a bit befuddled by being in the shelter and welcomes comfort from our volunteers. He walks well on leash and gets along with his kennel mates. He appreciates being petted and happily curls up next to you for a snuggle. Bert shows some signs of neglect (fly strike ears), and has a slight limp (likely from untreated arthritis) and a moderate heart murmur. We expect that once he is enjoying the comforts of indoor living, proper veterinary care, and plenty of love and attention, he will thrive. Bert is a darling dog with a gentle soulfulness that invites you to sit with him and reflect on the day. He will be a calming, affectionate best friend in any loving home.

Our Mission:

United Hope for Animals is dedicated to reducing homelessness among companion animals through spay/neuter, shelter support, photography, video and networking of shelter animals in Southern California. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
