Luke is a nice 4-year-old pit bull mix who gives the breed a good name. He is very gentle, is house trained, and has great manners.

He loves to go for walks and doesn’t pull on his leash. But he is also quite playful, and loves to walk around with a toy in his mouth, which he will gently hand to you or drop for you to throw for him.

He gets along with most dogs, but he would prefer to be your only pet.

Luke is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes.

Call (530) 573.7925 for directions, hours, and other information on adopting a pet.
