My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Beautiful and spunky Tapioca is approximately a year old and weighs 22 pounds. She is all mutt but clearly has some shepherd and lab and small terrier in her. She would most certainly be considered a medium sized dog since she is full grown.
She was found as a stray on the beach in Mexico and arrived in the US in June 2015. She retains some of her "street dog" habits. She is a sweet dog and has loads of energy. She loves her walks and running around the yard with her toys. She is still learning basic commands and will benefit from ongoing training. She does well with most other dogs but does have food aggression issues due to her background so would need to be fed separately, perhaps in a crate. .
Tapioca would be best suited with a dog saavy, active family who enjoy the outdoors and who would be committed to her continued training. This is NOT a starter dog. Young children and small family pets (cats,etc) would not be a good fit for this exuberant girl. She is very special and we hope you will consider adding her to your family!

Tapi's adoption donation is $200. Love A Mutt Pet Rescue is a 501c3 public charity and all monies go to help other dogs in need.

Thank you for choosing a rescue!
