Prince
Animal ID: A11-02409
Age: 3 years old
Breed: Labrador Retriever

Prince is a handsome 3-year-old boy looking for his forever home. He is still very puppy-like in his behavior, so he would be best suited for someone without any other dogs or small children, a person that has time for training, and someone with experience with his breed. With a bit of work, Prince would make a great companion! 

Prince is available for adoption at the P.D. Pitchford Companion Animal Village & Education Center at 7700 E. Spring St., Long Beach, CA 90815. For more information, please call (562) 570-7722 or visit the P.D. Pitchford Companion Animal Village & Education Center's website.

Skipper
Animal ID: A4241817
Age: 2 years old
Breed: Akita Mix

If you had to pick one word to describe Skipper, it would be "energy!" He is young and full of spunk. He would do best in a home with no young children. An ideal owner for Skipper would be patient with plenty of time for exercise and training. Once his energy is spent, Skipper loves to cuddle up next to you and just relax. 

Skipper is available for adoption at the L.A. County Downey Shelter, 11258 S. Garfield Ave., Downey, CA 90242. For more information, please call (562) 940-6898 or visit the L.A. County Downey Shelter's website. The L.A. County Downey Shelter services the city of Artesia.
