Shelton, a male pit-mix, is a high energy, active dog looking for a best friend to take him exploring. Enthusiastic about walks and comfortable on a leash, he is ready and eager for new adventures.

After a day of fun, Shelton loves to settle down and address his other passion, treats. He is especially fond of Pup-Peroni.

Shelton gets along well with people and other animals and is very good with children. He is an ideal family dog.
