(KERO) \u2014 Our adoptable pet of the week on Wag Wednesday is Scooby! He is available for adoption from the Bakersfield Animal Care Center.<\/p>\n<p>Scooby was found as a stray in early April, and he&#8217;s been at the shelter ever since. He is approximately 1 year and 8 months old, and the shelter thinks he is a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing to know about Scooby is that he has lots of energy! He is still a young dog, and he has so much love to give. Tara Nelson, a staff member at the Bakersfield Animal Care Center, says Scooby does very well on car rides, takes treats gently, and is dog friendly. <\/p>\n<p>The ideal adopter for Scooby is someone patient who can help him learn basic training skills, like &#8220;sit,&#8221; &#8220;down,&#8221; and work with him on his leash-walking skills. <\/p>\n<p>Scooby and other adoptable dogs will also be out on the town this Saturday, May 2, for the shelter&#8217;s second annual car show! The flyer is attached to this story in the carousel above.<\/p>\n<p>Scooby&#8217;s animal ID is A162857, and you can view his shelter profile <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/24Petconnect.com\/DetailsMain\/BAKR\/A162857\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Stay in Touch with Us Anytime, Anywhere:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BAKERSFIELD, Calif.
