ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — ABC Action News works with local shelters to help find homes for dogs every Friday morning in our Pet of the Week segment.
This week you have an opportunity to add a distinguished gentleman into your family. Caleb is a serious, 4-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix looking for a loving home.
According to the American Kennel Club, terriers are intelligent, good-natured dogs who are excellent guardians.
With the help of their “Guardian Angels,” all adopters of Pit Bulls will go home with a crate, leash, collar, Kong toy, small bag of Science Diet, and a free initial vet visit at Pet Pal Veterinary Clinic where a 1-month supply of heartworm and flea prevention will be provided.
A group training class will also be offered by a certified trainer to provide guidance in leadership skills for all family members.
Caleb walks well on a leash and will make a quiet, devoted companion. Shelter workers say he is among the calmest dogs they have had.
Caleb is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and dewormed. Thanks to the Pit Project and his Guardian Angel, Sandy Clenney, his adoption fee is only $75. You must own your home to adopt him.
For more information about how to adopt Caleb or other animals from Pet Pal Animal Shelter, you can call them (727) 328-7738 or go online to www.petpalanimalshelter.com.
Pet Pal Animal Shelter is located near Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. The address is 405 22nd Street South Street. You can visit all their dogs and cats up for adoption Tuesdays to Fridays from 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 to 4:30 p.m.
