Smokey is the “Pet of the Week”

He is a mix of Labrador, Pointer and Terrier

JACKSBORO, TN (WLAF)- Meet Smokey. This kind and caring young man is truly a lover and a happy guy who enjoys being outside. Smokey is a laid back kind of guy who gets along with his shelter roommates. He is super chill and likes to sniff at the other dog’s condos to greet them and check on how everyone is doing.

Smokey enjoys a walk and a run but could use some leash training. This rock and roll hall of fame star is ready to dance to some Motown with his new family. He has a short black coat with some white on his adorable face, chest, paws and the tip of his tail. He is approximately three years old and weighs 62 pounds.

Smokey is heartworm positive but is being treated for his condition. He is making fabulous progress and will recover successfully in no time. The impressive staff at the shelter will explain what is required for his treatment and how much longer he has to go.

Smokey loves a treat and is just full of happiness. He is a mix of Labrador, Pointer, Terrier, and some really good music. He trots around the shelter visiting the other dogs and as he does he almost dances to one of his famous single hits like “(Come ‘Round Here) I’m the One You Need”. 

 So go in and meet this guy and prepare to fall in love.
