Looking for your new best friend? Meet Tiger! This 84lb king of beasts is majestic as he is kind. Like his namesake, he has beautiful orange and black stripes, and he is looking for his forever home where he can be his playful self! He gave all our staff big tail wags with a huge smile. This guy loves belly rubs and knows some tricks - talk about a smartie! Sometimes, Tiger forgets his manners when he sees other dogs, so if you have another dog at home, you'll need to bring them for a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure compatibility.
Tiger is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It's a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take Tiger home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff!
