Pet of the Week:

Theo, found abandoned in May, is a model canine citizen at the shelter.

This American pit bull terrier mix, thought to be about 6 months old, is nearly fully grown at around 50 pounds, which is relatively small for his breed. But Theo has a big heart. He enjoys being with people and behaves well in the presence of other dogs.

He walks easily on leash and often sits quietly in his kennel. Healthy and athletic, Theo will thrive on more regular exercise. Being young, he will also benefit from consistent obedience and other training in a home.

He will be neutered upon adoption, and his fees are discounted 25% all week with mention of this announcement. For more information, call (714) 536-8480 or visit ochumanesociety.com.
