My personality

My story

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

Location is Tennessee

Tater is a sweet, chonky, loveable 3-year-old bully.

Tater LOVES training and taking long walks. He has a great recall and is really good at ignoring other dogs and people on walks! He is crate trained and potty trained and loves to snuggle with his people. Tater gets SOOOO excited his whole body will wiggle, and yes, it is the CUTEST! Tug is one of his favorite games, and he loves playing with Jolly Balls & in his pool in the summer. I know it sounds like Tater is PERFECTION (we think he is!) but there are some really important things to know...

Tater spent the last few years of his life living in a home with two other canine siblings. When Tater had access to exercise and socialization with humans (Tater could go to work with his mom!), he did well with the other two dogs. Unfortunately, due to unforeseeable changes in his mom's life, Tater was no longer able to go to work with his mom, plus longer work hours AND a new baby made spending time and exercising Tater extremely difficult. Tater's entire world changed. This caused a few escalations with one of his house siblings.

As a result of all the changes in his world, he has become overstimulated with lack of enrichment and exercise. Resource guarding items, whether it is toys or food is a response Tater has developed to help himself feel safe. This is not an appropriate behavior, and Tater will need continued guidance getting back on track. He has already made amazing progress.

Tater is NOT for a first-time dog owner. He needs an experienced dog owner who will be completely committed to his success. Tater needs companionship, exercise and enrichment (a simple care ride! Walk in the park!) to keep his brain engaged.

We would consider a home with one other dog (max 1) with a stable temperament as he does love to play with other dogs. We also do not recommend homes with young children (under the age of 13), because of Tater's history of resource guarding.
