An adorable and extremely clever German shepherd puppy knows his own crate as jail. “Go to jail” the puppy’s owner would yell, and the seven-month-old  would run into his crate and sit. Ironically, Sonny’s owner was subsequently arrested and landed in jail. A volunteer from the Carson Animal Care Center in California tells the dog’s sad story:

“His owner is in jail, and he abandoned this puppy he called Baby Boy. His neighbors brought him into the shelter, and they say he is a smart, sweet, amazing puppy great with everyone. He is also crate trained, and when his owner wants him to go into his crate he would say ironically “GO TO JAIL” and Baby Boy would do it.. He needs help fast.”

I have been at the shelter since Apr 12, 2017. I am not yet neutered. I will be available on 4/16. You can visit me at my temporary home at C348.  For more information about this animal, call Los Angeles County Animal Control – Carson at (310) 523-9566. Ask for information about animal ID number A5049752.

  1. When you have little ones who depend on you it means acting like you got sense! That means not doing anything that’s going to get you in a place where you can’t take care of them!

  2. Everyone should have a plan for if something happens to you. I cringe thinking this beautiful pup in is in Carson especially since he is so scared and the Los Angeles Animal Control have said they won’t be allowing dogs that don’t pass their temperament tests be adopted or pulled by rescues. Keeping him in my prayers.

  3. OMG! I find this so heartbreaking and upsetting! Are they keeping this puppy outside in the sun,where is a water dish and something to lay on? What the heck is going on here? Who the heck is dragging this poor puppy?

  4. Omg, poor dog to land at the cacc. As good as he is, just showing fear will be the cause for them to murder him. Hopefully one of his family members will step up and save him. Sorry the owner landed in jail but taking him there is a death sentence.
