*UPDATE* Chow Mix Dog To A Good Home PLEASE HELP
This is an update to my original post “Chow Mix Dog To A Good Home PLEASE HELP”.
Saturday my wife and I went to the Long Beach Animal Control where we released the above pictured Chow Mix to the city, this was the day they (LB Animal Control) evaluated him and decided if he would be a candidate for adoption. If yes, they transfer him to the Society Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCALA) building next door. The SPCALA told me they did NOT pick him for adoption. They said he was agitated when they tried to muzzle him. To be honest… I don’t know one dog that is OK with being muzzled by strangers.
So, I asked to see him so I could check up on him. He is now sharing a kennel with a mangy grouchy dog that grows. I asked one of the employees about the Chows temperament. He replied with “that dog is nice and sweet”. So we called the Chow rescue organization we have been working with to help us get him out as a “rescued dog” adopting was out of the question. Something I didn’t realize is that you have to be an approved animal rescue organization with the city in order to rescue an animal. The group we were working with was not on the approved list. However, with a few quick phone calls we found a group that was willing to help; but not able to make it to Animal Control until later in the week.
We were given an extension until this Wednesday 3/26 with this Chow. They told us “we have their word” they would not put him down until Wednesday. So fingers crossed we can get an approved rescue in to save him. Once he is out he will be neutered and will have all his shots.
Thanks for everyone that contacted me regarding the little guy he is going to make a family really happy. If anyone would like to adopt him once we rescue him please comment to this post with your email (your email wont be publicly seen) and I can send you any info you may need.
I will post an update when I have more info.

My wife and I found a dog, we took it to the Animal Shelter hoping the owner would find it. No one came to claim him. Then the city wanted to put him down saying that “chows are mean dogs and have the potential to harm people”. We worked with a rescue and have been fostering him until we can find a home for him.
