Panda: A Pit Bull Puppy With No Home
Panda has been at the Pinellas County Animal Shelter for a month and is in desperate need of a home.
Panda is only a puppy at 6 months old, but he's having a hard time finding a home.

As of Oct. 17, he's been with Animal Services for a month, an unusually long time for a puppy. How to Adopt Panda is ready to go to his forever home.
