‘Smiley’ dog is only 5 years old and he is at risk of being killed at shelter

A handsome and “smiley,” five-year old dog is at risk of being killed at a busy Texas animal control agency. The Belgian Malinois mix, named Dale, is being held at the San Antonio Animal Care Services facility and he is at risk of being put down.

On December 3, SAPA Urgents & Adoptables shared Dale’s dire situation:

THIS DOG IS IN ACS KENNELS & AT RISK OF BEING KILLED. SHELTER EVALUATES SPACE AT: 9:30 am Mon-Sat, and again at 5 pm Mon-Fri & 3 pm Sat. Or at any time as space is needed.

Shelter staff has shared insight to Dale personality, writing:

Dale is a big, big boy. He is actually fairly good on leash but could use a bit of a brush up. Dale knows sit, is very smiley, and absolutely gorgeous. If you’re a lover of big, shepherd type dogs come take a look at this handsome fellow!

Dale is in the prime of his life and he will undoubtedly make someone a wonderful companion – but only if he is saved in time. You can help Dale by sharing this article with his adoption information.
