Where Pet Pal Animal Shelter Is
Every Monday we highlight a dog that is available for adoption at Pet Pal Animal Shelter. Our Mutt Monday dog is Kaley this week and she is available at Pet Pal Animal Shelter in St. Pete.
Pet Pal’s Mission Statement is, “Our mission is to rescue dogs and cats from shelters that may otherwise be euthanized due to time limitations, illness, injuries or lack of socialization and training. We are dedicated to educating the public about the pet overpopulation crisis, the importance of spaying/neutering, and responsible pet ownership.”
Finally, Pet Pal is open from Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. They are closed on Sunday and Monday. Pet Pal is located at 405 22nd Street South in St. Pete. They also have a thrift store that supports the efforts of the shelter.
When you go to a shelter to look for an animal, seeing all the dogs will be emotional. Getting an animal is a huge life decision but it is also a gratifying one as well.
If you adopt our Mutt Monday dog, Kaley, it is sure to brighten up your life. Check him out at Pet Pal Animal Shelter in St. Pete.

The 3 Summer Publix ice cream flavors I’m going to pass on:
Before I get to the 5 summer Publix ice cream flavors I’ve gotta try, here are the 3 runner ups that aren’t so much for me… but you might like. I’m not an almonds fan so Coffee Almond Fudge will be a no for me. I’m not so much into pecans either so I’m going to pass on the Caramel Turtle Cheesecake. And my lack of love for nuts continues… I’m going to say “no thanks” to Hula Hula Macadamia.
Now, here are the 5 I’m going to be definitely looking for that BOGO on.
#5: Cold Brew Cookies and Crème
This one doesn’t take me back to my childhood so much like the others do. I didn’t become a coffee drinker until way late in life. It started when I was a morning guy on the radio in California. That caffeine kick was a necessity when I had to be up every morning at 5. A mashup with chocolate sounds good to me. Publix describes this one as “cold brew coffee flavored ice cream with crème filled chocolate cookie pieces throughout.” So is it ok to eat this one first thing in the morning? Asking for a fri… me, asking for me.
#4: Marry Me Strawberry
I didn’t get a chance to get over to Plant City for the Florida Strawberry Festival this year. So this will have to do. Publix describes it as “strawberry flavored ice cream with ribbons of strawberry flavored sauce, studded with pieces of white chocolate flavored strawberry pecan bark.” Now I mentioned I’m not a big pecans fan. But I’ll still take this one for a spin for sure.
#3: Buckeyes & Fudge
Any dessert with peanut butter and chocolate is an instant yes for me. I’m Team Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups all the way. This one isn’t affiliated with the candy, but it sounds like the ice cream equivalent to me. Publix describes it as “peanut butter ice cream loaded with chocolatey covered peanut butter buckeye candies and swirls of thick fudge.” I’m 100% in.
#2: Chocolate Cookie Quarry
The ice cream truck menu only needed one thing to make me happy as a kid. Ice cream sandwiches. As simple as they are, that’s what summer tastes like to me. So I’m way into this one. Publix describes it as “chocolate ice cream with decadent chocolate cookie crumb swirls and chunks of flavored chocolate sandwich cookies.”
#1: Lemon Berry Bliss
You probably heard me talk about this one on the show today. This one’s got my name all over it. I love lemon flavored desserts. And being a kid from Maine, blueberries have always been a part of my life. Blueberry muffins, blueberry pancakes, I’ll even buy blueberry coffee when I see it. So to see these 2 flavors together? Psh. No brainer. I’m all in. Publix describes it as lemon crème flavored ice cream with lemonade flavored flakes and blueberry flavored swirls.
