Shelby Pit Bull Terrier & Labrador Retriever Mix Elk River, MN

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.
Greetings everyone, I go by Shelby. I like to think of myself as quite clever. Fetching a ball and returning it is one of my specialties.

I've already mastered commands like sit, kennel, and drop (wood chips are a personal favorite). During a walk, I exhibited minimal pulling and remained calm around people, bikes, and loud cars. Zooming around the spacious yard is one of my favorite pastimes. In fact, here's a sweet video of me playing fetch outside. I'm also adept at navigating stairs to go outside.

If anyone is seeking a bright, affectionate companion like myself, I'd be thrilled to meet them. P.S. I'm quite motivated by food.

Shelby is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
