Shy, Friendly Egypt Hoping for a New Home
He is available for adoption at the Pasco County Animal Shelter.
Everyone likes a friendly guy, right?
Egypt, a pit mix, is between two and four years old, Pasco County Animal Services volunteer Jeff Lipkes said. He's "a little shy, but then very friendly."
Could Egypt be your new best pal?

Those fees are reduced through the end of January, though.
"For January we are doing a certified pre-owned pet special," animal services volunteer coordinator Judy Gregory said. "The dogs will be $35 and the cats $20."
Adoptions fees can be reimbursed by taking the adoption reciept to Friendly Kia in New Port Richey, she said.
