PET of the WEEK
WKSK is proud to present “The Pet of the Week"!
PET OF THE WEEK: “BLUE” He is a beautiful intact 3-year-old male mastiff. Very friendly and loves to play and cuddle. His smile is a mile wide when he’s outside chasing tennis balls and chewing on his toys. He’s learning how to walk on a leash “Blue” is a big strong boy and needs the room and ability to get his exercise. He would probably do best in a one dog home and with a family who is experienced with large breed dogs. His looks are intimidating, but this guy is just a big Love Bug.
