My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Axel loves walks in the park and practicing commands for treats. He already knows sit, shake, and down. He would prefer a home without small animals, but may be open to a doggie sibling of similar size.

Meet senior husky/shepherd mix Axel! Available to adopt through VCAS in Ventura County, CA. You can find him posted to the shelter website at vcas.us/huskyweek. ID: A682189 Axel is an independent, laid back gentleman. He’s been at the shelter for over a year and a half ?? Unfortunately, we think Axel is overlooked due to his age. We have over 30 huskies in our care and oftentimes folks opt for a younger model. :( Another added factor is that he can sometimes be a little protective over his food and toys! Our shelter volunteers are working on training with him, and we feel behavior is very manageable in a home with adults. We don’t think Axel deserves to spend live in the shelter because of something that just takes a little extra intention to work on. ??

The Simi Valley Animal Shelter is smaller facility located three miles from Moorpark College and can house up to 40 animals. The Simi Valley Shelter, however smaller, offers many of the same services and opportunities as the Camarillo Shelter, such as the intake of stray and surrendered animals, pet adoptions, pet licensing, the reclaim of lost animals, and volunteer opportunities.

VCAS offers a wide array of programs and services to the residents and animals of Ventura County. These services include animal sheltering, pet adoptions, lost & found, field services, cruelty investigations, pet licensing, TNR surgical services, low-cost vaccination clinics, volunteer/foster opportunities and emergency disaster response.

VCAS provides contract services to the residents of Camarillo, Fillmore, Moorpark, Ojai, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Simi Valley, Ventura, and all unincorporated areas of Ventura County. VCAS is dedicated to improving the lives of the animals in their care, and to safeguard the community through rabies suppression and the sheltering of stray animals.
