Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Say hello to Petey! Petey is an adorable little (8 lbs) 4 year young love-bug who had a very unfortunate start to life. Somehow, Petey ended up in the South L.A. animal shelter, where he was noticed and networked by their amazing volunteers. He was adopted back in November and everyone celebrated!
However, that celebration was short-lived. The weekend of February 22nd, the same volunteers who worked so hard to network Petey noticed he showed up at an adoption event. Turns out he was "returned" to the East Valley Shelter in early February because his "owner" said s/he had "no time" for a dog. Well, we heard this story and rushed to the East Valley Shelter to bail Petey out once and for all.
Petey lives in a foster home with four cats (you're a trooper, Petey!) and gets along really well with other dogs. He prances well on leash and is crate trained. Petey is pretty much the perfect little pup.
