My story

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

Rubio is a little bit of a shy guy, and has ongoing orthopedic issues that are being managed with pain medication. Ideally, he would be able to live his days in a softer home environment, where he wasnt living on hard concrete and sometimes wet, slippery floors. He is currently recovering from an FHO surgery.

Rubio is on our Call to Action list because his medical needs make him more challenging than the average dog in a shelter setting - not because he wouldn`t make a good companion for the right person! He’s looking for an adopter or rescue willing to give him the attention he needs to thrive. If you a big heart for dogs who need a little extra help, Rubio may be your guy. Come in to the shelter to meet him today!

@vcanimalservices
Rubio the cattle/dog husky is looking for a soft place to land! He arrived at the shelter purple with injuries to his back end, neck, and a limp. Rubio may end up needing a hip surgery (a procedure known as FHO), in which case he’d need a foster for 6-8 weeks of crate rest. For now, we know for sure that Rubio will heal up better in a foster home than in the shelter! He’s been nervous around people so far, but accepts treats and tolerates pets. A laid back, patient household, perhaps one experienced with fearful dogs, would make for a great foster environment. We aren’t sure how Rubio feels about other animals, but he should be kept separate from other pets while he’s resting and healing. Interested in helping out this fluffy fox? Please apply at vcas.us/foster and email vcar.foster@ventura.org to let us know you’re specifically interested in Rubio A874650 ??

More about this shelter

Ventura County Animal Services (VCAS) is an open admission, life-saving, municipal animal welfare agency in the County of Ventura. The Camarillo Shelter, the main shelter, is located between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara Counties and houses the Administrative Offices and Veterinary Hospital. The Camarillo Shelter has a 400-animal capacity which can increase to over 900 during declared natural disasters.

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.
