Here's what the humans have to say about me:
United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals. This pet is part of our Shelter Support Program at the Baldwin Park Shelter. For more information about the pet, the adoption process, or our program please contact the Volunteer Adoption Coordinator listed below.
Because animals are adopted/rescued daily, please also check the United Hope for Animals Facebook page to see if an animal is still available OR call the Baldwin Park Shelter at 626-962-3577. When inquiring about an animal, please reference the animal’s ID number. This will enable the volunteer or Baldwin Park employee to locate the status of the pet. Thank you for supporting rescue.
Pet Information
A5464537 Wilber is a cooperative 1 year old Cream and Tan neutered male Akita and German Shepherd mix puppy who came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on September 6, 2022 as an owner surrender because he escaped from their yard. Weighing 46 lbs, Wilber shows signs of housebreaking and loves attention. He will need a secure yard with a 6 foot fence, as well as daily exercise and attention to keep him happy staying home. Smart Wilber also would enjoy mental stimulation from training and toys to keep him from getting bored. After a little exercise in the play yard, Wilber was very happy to sit next to his handler and soak up some attention and petting. He’s very petite for an Akita so we think there are other smaller dogs in his family tree. Calm large dogs are ok according to the shelter, and they recommend that any kids in the home are middle school age or older who will be able to play and exercise with him.
