Help saving lives! Devore shelter (San Bernadino DEADLY shelter - Their Euth rate is 87%!!!! Most of dogs there only has one or two days...please help networking for those precious lives! ) This so called 'Shelter' is one of the worst shelters in the country. They kill any dogs to show they can kill any dogs they want. They even have their unlicensed employees kill dogs to satisfy their curiosity. They don't allow any blankets or any kind of comforting items so dogs freeze themselves on concrete floor during winter. Please sign the petition below to stop this shelter from senseless killing!
