Poor Aero returned by adopter in wheelchair for his energy and now listed to be euth’ed

Aero is scheduled to be humanely euthanized at anytime now since having been returned to the City of San Bernardino Animal Services by a person in a wheelchair for being too active.

The shelter manager has reached out for the public’s help to find help for this four-year-old mixed breed dog who is friendly, loves other dogs and delights in playing with toys. Aero originally entered the shelter in October 2023 and was adopted by a man in a wheelchair, but the person found out he needed a small dog that didn’t require much exercise. Poor Aero was flustered and confused when he was locked up again in a shelter cage. Who can blame him?
