Vader is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He needed help.

Vader is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 6-year-old, 65-pound, male, English Bulldog mix.

Vader’s family had him since he was a puppy. When he needed medical treatment that the family could not afford, they surrendered him to Rancho Coastal Humane Society. Now he needs a new home.

Vader is house trained. He doesn’t like bikes or skateboards. He likes walking, the beach, and taking naps.
