00:00Baldwin Park Care Center is not a no-kill facility, we are a very high-intake shelter.

00:07Frankie is a blue-nosed pit bull, he's about 70-80 pounds, he has a ton of energy, he's

00:14really friendly, he likes people, but you can tell whoever he was with before didn't

00:18really spend a lot of time with him.

00:21Someone had put in a call that this dog was chained up behind some industrial buildings.

00:26He had a big pinch collar on, he was going crazy, he had no food, no water, no shelter,

00:31he'd been there all day.

00:32So our officer came and kind of befriended him, brought him back here.

00:37Here at the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center, the facility here is very large.

00:42We have four dog runs with 48 kennels in each dog run.

00:46The mission for Baldwin Park is to ensure public safety as well as ensure the health

00:52of the animals that come into our care, and to ensure the animals are treated appropriately

00:59while living with their owners.

01:01Though we want to adopt every single animal that comes through these doors, we know we

01:06cannot save them all, but with the public's help, we can get on the right track to make

01:12that a false statement in the near future.

01:15Baldwin Park Care Center is not a no-kill facility, we are a very high-intake shelter,

01:20and a lot of people would say high-kill.

01:22Frankie is here where that happens, but we do try and keep the animals as long as we

01:26can and as long as we have space.

01:29No dog should have to live in a cage forever.

01:31Pit bulls in general don't do well in cages.

01:34It would be selfish for us to make him stay in a cage forever if he can't find out.

01:39Frankie is special to us because we know his story.

01:42We saw Frankie come to us from being tied up.

01:45We feel bad for him because that's a horrible way to be abandoned by the person that supposedly

01:49loved you.

01:50We get to take care of him, and someone else obviously didn't take care of him.

01:55Frankie would make a great pet for any athletic family, hiking, jogging, anything like that.

02:00He would love to lounge around on your floor, at your feet, he would love to play tug-of-war

02:04with you probably all day.

02:05I think he'd be a good pet.
