Spuds - Pit Bull Terrier and Dalmation

You SPOTted me! My name is Spuds and I have been with the shelter since mid February.  I am very young so I am energetic but lots of fun! I will speak my mind when I want and would do best in an active family who loves walks and lots of play time.  I don't like being home alone so someone being their with me often would be great.  The shelter recommends me being in a home with no kids or small dogs due to my size but I am still friendly! If you have a canine friend at home, please bring them down to meet me at the Front Street Animal Shelter!
