I found this dog about a month ago, and would like to find a home for him. It’s a male pitbull, and he’s an absolute sweetheart. He is a puppy, so he’s going to get a little bit bigger. My guess is he probably weighs about 40 pounds. I did take him to the vet, and he’s had his first round of shots. Can you please place an ad in the Slaton classified that you have for me? Please have people call me at this number 816-868-6696. Thanks so much for your help!
