At the shelter in San Bernardino City, a photo of a six-month-old shepherd, Baby, who entered the shelter on March 13 as a stray, shows a very depressed young dog shivering in the corner of her kennel. With her photo, the following description included:
does not solitict attention. Hiding. will not come forward.
Meet Baby #A563428. She is six-months-old and weighs 34 pounds. Multiple videos of Baby are available showing her happily frolicking with another puppy while soliciting attention from the shelter volunteers.

And here’s another video: https://www.facebook.com/…/pcb…/7320500974652404
Let’s discuss. If you look at the main photos together, on the left is the photo the shelter is using. On the right is a screenshot taken from a video of Baby in the play yard with a happy husky.
And here is her adoption listing including the photo used by the shelter:
BABY – ID#A563428
My name is Baby and I am an unaltered female, sable and brown German Shepherd Dog. Shelter staff think I am about 6 months old. I have been at the shelter since Mar 13, 2024.
How sad to think that this puppy’s life is due to be extinguished on March 27, and this is how her plight is being shown by the shelter. If you have taken the time to check out the videos made by compassionate volunteers, doesn’t Baby seem to be very sweet and adoptable?
If you feel as I do that whoever is making these decisions and signing the death warrants for highly adoptable dogs, please share them before it’s too late and let your voice be heard. The director of this shelter is Kristine Watson. Her email is [email protected]
In the comments of this post is a copy of Baby’s kennel card with notes from kennel management making the decisions on these dogs’ lives. The email notifying networkers and rescues came from Jasmine Glover McNamara.
In the meantime, let’s get Baby saved and out of the euthanasia room.
