SMITHTOWN, NY — Kobi, "a real beef cake," was named the Smithtown Animal Shelter Pet of the Week. He is a 2-and-a-half-year-old American bully.

"Kobi is an adorable pup who has a face that makes you instantly fall in love with him," the shelter stated. "He has a wonderful disposition and gets along well with other dogs."

Sadly, Kobi has some heart problems, so he needs an owner who is willing to go the extra mile to make sure his special needs are met. Despite his heart problems, and a tough start to his life, Kobi is sweet, affectionate and extremely outgoing. He has an amazing attitude through it all.

The Smithtown Animal Shelter's primary concern is finding the perfect home for each animal that finds his/her way to it. The Animal Control Officers at the Smithtown Animal Shelter will go out of their way to ensure both the rescued and rescuer are made for one another. If you have other pets, you can arrange to bring your four-legged family member into the shelter or they can set up an at-home meet & greet to see how your prospective new addition does with other family members, pets or the household itself.
