Urgent Plea for Timid Pitbull Mix Facing Euthanasia at Carson Animal Shelter
Carson, CA – Flint, a 2-year-old Pitbull mix, is urgently seeking a loving home at the Carson Animal Shelter. The white-coated dog, who arrived as a stray in May, has been noted by volunteers for his timid and withdrawn demeanor, often found tucked quietly in a corner of his kennel. According to a shelter volunteer, Flint's journey has been challenging. He arrived with a visible mass and was severely flea-infested. His fear is palpable; volunteers report that he even urinated on himself during a recent attempt to take him out for a walk. Despite his initial shyness, Flint is described as a sweet and people-friendly dog. However, his prolonged stay and the challenges he faces have placed him on his second notice, meaning he is at risk of euthanasia if not adopted or taken in by a rescue organization soon. The shelter is actively seeking a kind and patient family willing to provide him with the care and understanding he needs to overcome his struggles. Flint (ID: A5703638) is available for adoption at the Carson Animal Shelter in Gardena, California.
