About Taz

When Taz got to her foster home, she was a wild child.  She didn’t know the enjoyment of being touched or taken for walks.  But she has discovered the luxuries of pet life and is now enjoying pets, going for walks, riding in the car, and having a nice soft place to sleep. She also loves her doggie friends, wagging her tail and wiggling when she greets them.

Taz is a great companion in many ways:
Crate and house trained.
Walks nicely on a leash.  Likes to snuggle on the couch. Loves to fetch her ball.
Rides in the car nicely. Gets along with other dogs and would love a dog her size as a friend.

What Taz needs is a patient person who enjoys building trust. Taz will need guidance in a new location to learn her new routine. Taz seeks connection in her own way, quietly keeping an eye on her person wherever they go, and does enjoy affection, and continues to like it more over time. She knows “come” and her name, and should learn these in a new location with a little effort and some cheese.

Taz would do best in an adult home with a secure yard and someone who finds joy in watching a shy dog blossom. The bond you build with her won’t happen overnight, but it will be one you’ve earned.

Taz is underwent surgery in late March to move her kneecaps back where they should be.  The results of the surgery are miraculous.  Taz now has straight legs and can play bow, stretch, and walk like a normal dog. The vet staff commented on how well Taz tolerated her handling during the procedure. Taz is fully recovered and rejoices daily by running and jumping around the yard.  See her before and after pics in the listing.
