Blaze is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He's one of the favorites.

Blaze is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 1-year and 10-month-old, 57-pound, male, Bull Terrier mix.

Blaze was at a shelter in the Imperial Valley, where he was one of the favorite dogs in their kennels. He was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS.)

He’s happy and wiggly. When you pet him, Blaze melts into you. He loves playing with squeaky toys. He could go home with kids as young as 12.
