My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

If interested in any of our animals for adoption, or to foster an animal, please fill out the respective application here to get the process started. Visit our FAQ webpage for commonly asked questions about our adoption/foster process.



Tiger is an extremely cuddly dog - he would be content to spend all day long snuggled up on the couch with his person! He makes an excellent blanket, and will climb right on top of people and lay down to be as close to them as possible. While he is very calm and loving when he is comfortable with people, he can get anxious in new situations and become overstimulated easily. He will let you know when he is overstimulated with his high energy and inability to settle down. We are working on being calm in new situations, but he would still like a home that will give him the time he needs to get used to everything new. Once he is comfortable with you, his calm and snuggly personality will come out!

Tiger is also very smart and easy to train - he can learn a new trick or behavior in minutes! He picks up on repeated behaviors easily, and will start to anticipate what gets him rewarded at specific times of day or following certain environmental clues. Because of this, he absolutely thrives with a routine. So far, Tiger has learned "sit", "down", "paw", "other paw", "leave it", "stay", and "come", and is also doing pretty well with "drop", "mat", "crate", and "roll over". He walks very well on a leash and only pulls if he sees a cat or squirrel. This prey drive means he probably wouldn't do well in a home with a cat, but may do okay with another dog as long as he has plenty of time to get used to them slowly. His overexcitement at meeting new dogs tends to put them off, and he isn't great at taking their social cues of not wanting to play. Similarly, he isn't used to being around kids and may be overstimulated by their energy at first.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
