Dog of the Week: Donatello

Donatello is a 2-year-old male German Shepherd and Anatolian Shepherd mix dog, weighing approximately 77 pounds, and is available for adoption at the Lompoc Animal Center.  Donatello is intelligent and requires someone to provide him with ample mental stimulation.

Staff mentioned that Donatello’s ideal person would be someone who takes him for walks regularly and teaches him new commands, as he is ready to learn. Donatello enjoys being brushed.  Donatello is described by staff as shy but treat-motivated and has learned to sit and come. His adoption fees include neuter, microchipping, vaccinations, flea treatment, and a health and wellness exam.

The Lompoc division of Santa Barbara County Animal Services is located at 1501 West Central in Lompoc. Stop by between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday or call (833) 422-8413 for more information about available animals throughout the County.
