A5171143 Ricola  is an affectionate 7-year-old black-and-tan neutered male Bernese Mountain Dog and Shepherd mix who came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on April 23rd  as a stray from La Puente. Weighing 62 lbs, Ricola is one terrific big dog. He’s the best and anyone who wants this type of dog should come and get him quick. In fact, if we all didn’t have a lot of dogs already, there are several volunteers who’d take him home now. He is fantastic on a leash and a joy to walk. He has a medium to low level of energy, is curious and super sweet. He shows signs of housebreaking and is good with all sized dogs. This big boy needs a good bath to show how incredibly handsome he really is. He’s calm and attentive, a favorite of everyone at the shelter. He cooperates with everyone, sits by your side while waiting for you to finish your chat and is a total people pleaser. Unfortunately, someone must have left him outside his whole life and sadly it looks like they cropped his ears. He’ll be perfect for any type of household.

It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
