Surrendered by his "family" October 24.
He dies Monday November 2, at
Pinellas County Animal Services. 💔

Why will they kill him?
"Very affectionate and eager to please, once he knows you, but fearful in the kennel."

Director Jennifer Renner (2025 Salary $128,348 + Benefits) does not list him on her website.
Why?
Surprise: she doesn't publicize the pets she intends to kill.
And what do we say to non-transparency at public institutions?
Make him famous. ❤️

A good boy reportedly at risk of "humane euthanasia".
Why?
Surprise: he nips at staff when they return him to his kennel, where he's confined 23+ hours every day.
Just like thousands of Australian Cattle Dogs did before him, and countless more will do after him.
It's amost as if communicating with his mouth is behavior innate to his breed. 😑
A good boy needs a hero, NOW.

A very good boy will die, this week. 💔

🔴Where will he die?
Director Marcia Mayeda and manager Daniel Dibene's abusive & deadly County of Los Angeles Palmdale Animal Care Center.

🔴What day will they kill him?
Nobody knows, because director Marcia (2025 Salary + Benefits $553,772) and manager Dan (2025 Salary + Benefits $188,549) are too lazy to publish deadlines.

🔴Why will Marcia & Dan kill him?
Their favorite excuse: "Kennel space".
Which is entirely invalid.
Because they invalidate it.
By making zero effort to promote their pets.
Instead, they quietly kill them.
Because it's easier. 💔

He needs a hero, NOW.
