This week’s Folsom Times Shelter Pet Spotlight, generously sponsored by Symmetry for Health introduces Hal, a lovable 11-month-old Pit Bull Terrier mix, who is eagerly waiting for his forever home. Hal is currently staying at Sacramento County Animal Care Services, where he has been for a while since arriving on June 22. With his adoption fee waived, Hal is ready to find a family that can offer him the love and care he deserves.

Hal is a young, friendly, neutered male with a striking brown and black coat. Weighing in at 61 pounds, he’s full of puppy energy and charm. Though he’s still learning to walk on a leash, Hal is food-motivated and gets excited during treat-based training sessions, making him a great candidate for further training in a supportive home.

Shelter staff believe Hal would thrive in a household with adults or dog-savvy teenagers who can guide him through his energetic puppy phase. He’s also had positive experiences in shelter playgroups, so he may enjoy having a compatible canine companion in his new home. If you’re looking for a buddy for your current dog, the shelter encourages bringing them along for a meet-and-greet with Hal to see if they’re a perfect match.

To meet Hal, visit the Sacramento County Animal Care Services located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Sunday from noon to 5 p.m., with extended hours until 6 p.m. on Wednesdays. Adoptions are first-come, first-served, so be sure to bring a valid ID and plan your visit soon.

Adopting Hal not only brings joy into your home but also helps open up space for another pet in need of shelter care. If you’re considering adoption, Hal might just be the perfect addition to your family.

This week’s spotlight is made possible by Symmetry for Health, a Folsom-based corrective exercise program focused on pain relief and performance enhancement. Their unique, physics-based approach helps realign the body to promote optimal function. You can learn more about them at their Folsom location on 1845 Iron Point Road, or by visiting their website.
