Plenty of Pets
Wendell is a one-year-old pit mix who weighs 78 pounds and loves to play and snuggle.
He’s house trained and crate trained, and doesn’t mind being alone at home for a few hours. He’s not destructive in the home.
He’s good on leash, but does like to walk fast.
He gets along well with other dogs and is used to children but, because he might jump up, he’d be best in a home where children aren’t too small.
Wendell is neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites and micro chipped. He comes with 30-days of free pet insurance courtesy of 24PetWatch. His adoption fee is $350.
Wendell is an adoptable with Coastal K9. For more information, visit the rescue’s website or Facebook page or email [email protected]
