It is becoming commonplace at San Bernardino County’s infamous Devore Shelter. Another dog has been labeled and destroyed. In what appears to be retaliation for rescue groups speaking out about the atrocities at Devore, more and more animals are being labeled “aggressive” or “rescue only” due to fear, coughing or other arbitrary reasons.
