About Mitch

Mitch is a loving 6-year-old mixed-breed dog who came to the rescue from 29 Palms. With his charming personality, he can brighten anyone's day. Although his sister has found her forever home, Mitch is still on the lookout for his. This gentle Lab/Shepherd mix is house trained and knows several commands, including sit, down, and speak. He’s currently working on gaining a bit of healthy weight. From his kennel, he barks to express his eagerness to be around people. But once he's out, Mitch turns into a cuddly companion who loves to settle in for a good nap. A volunteer reported that Mitch excelled during a visit to the office, earning the nickname "Nemo" for his playful spirit and small ear. He took his snuggle responsibilities seriously, providing warmth and affection to all he met. Mitch interacts wonderfully with children and is friendly with both dogs and cats.
