Here's what the humans have to say about me:
THIS IS A COURTESY LISTING—This dog is not in foster care with BAPBR and we make no guarantees about his/her health or temperament. We are providing a service to Del Norte County Animal Control to help with adoption. Please contact the shelter directly if you are interested in meeting or adopting this dog – their info is below.
Bachelor has been waiting for over two years at the Del Norte County Animal Control Shelter for the right person to find him and show him the love and comfort of a true forever home. Found as a stray, this smart, sweet boy is a shelter favorite - he's handsome (he likes to look his best and appreciates the glow a nice bath gives his coat), easy-going, walks nicely on a leash and is always up for new adventures (take him on a car ride or for a swim and he'll be overjoyed). His shelter fan club reports that Bachelor seems to have never known real comfort and would blossom as an indoor dog with his own comfy bed. He has been struggling lately with the stress and boredom of kennel life, and they are eager to see him flourish with the love and guidance of his own family. His teeth are worn down badly so he'll need softer chew toys and balls, and he has a grain allergy that can easily be managed with the proper food. Bachelor takes a little time to warm-up and decompress (he can come off as aloof when meeting new people), and would do well with an attentive older couple or single adult looking for a devoted sidekick. Learn more about adopting (or fostering!) this beautiful boy by contacting the shelter directly at (707) 464-7235.
Born Again Pit Bull Rescue regularly works with the wonderful staff and volunteers at the Del Norte County Animal Control Shelter located in Crescent City, CA—a small coastal town on the OR/CA border. The Del Norte Shelter is a limited facility in a rural area that's often at capacity. While the dedicated staff and volunteers that run the shelter offer the dogs as much comfort and compassion as possible, they struggle with low budgets, aging buildings, small indoor kennel runs, odd adoption viewing hours and low foot traffic. If you're considering adoption, the folks at Del Norte have a wide variety of wonderful dogs looking for homes to call their own and they're ready to help match you to the right one!
The Del Norte County Animal Control Shelter is open Monday – Friday from 8am to 5pm. They are typically closed Saturdays and Sundays though sometimes offer special weekend adoption hours.
Address: 2650 Washington Blvd - Crescent City, CA 95531
