Meet Diesel: A Sweet Boy Who's Been Waiting Over 200 Days
It's Fido Friday, and this week community contributor Jen Agnew introduces us to Diesel, a five-year-old who has been at the Coachella Valley Animal Campus since January. That's more than 200 days.
He was nervous when Jen first met him, but it didn't take long. He warmed up almost instantly, jumped right into the truck, and with the cooler weather, the two headed straight to the dog park. Once there, Diesel thrived. He was great around other dogs, loved being outside, and while he wasn't too interested in chasing the ball himself, he was perfectly happy watching Jen throw it.
If you're interested in adopting Diesel, contact the Coachella Valley Animal Campus and reference ID number A-1896798.
To become a FIDO walker and take a dog out for the day, email Pam Solek at pam.solek@gmail.com or find her on the Nextdoor app.

Remembering and honoring the loved ones we’ve lost. ❤️ Dia de los Muertos is about more than mourning — it’s a time to celebrate the lives, memories and traditions of those who will always remain in our hearts. We spoke with Mateo Gomez of Forest Lawn about the importance of keeping those memories alive and creating healthier conversations around grief and loss, including the stigma surrounding suicide. Join Forest Lawn for a special Día de los Muertos celebration this Monday in Cathedral City, from 5 to 8 p.m. Families are invited to come together, remember loved ones and celebrate their lives. #DiaDeLosMuertos #DayOfTheDead #ForestLawn #CathedralCity #RememberingLovedOnes #GriefSupport #NBCPalmSprings
