Beagle and German Shepherd Dog Dogs Available for Adoption

This dog is on our Call to Action List because she has been returned from three separate adoptions for being defensive, growling, and overly protective in the home. At the shelter, Molly is relatively easy to handle and can be walked easily by volunteers. We think a quiet home with an experienced adopter, or transfer to a rescue group who can provide Molly with training would be the most suitable types of placement for miss Molly. VCAS may be able to provide support with training! Interested parties can email animal.care@venturacounty.gov Rescue groups can email vcar.rescue@venturacounty.gov
