Pit mix

According to Vernon Collins, animal control officer, this dog turned one year old on Nov. 7. He was an owner surrender and has no bite history. He has a very calm personality so he’s fine to be around children or any size family. Collins did say that because he is part pitbull, he does need to exercises daily. Collins added that the dog is fine wearing a leash. For adoption information, call 575-356-4404 or visit the animal shelter at 1700 N. Boston.
