Meet Sweet Tater! A one of a kind pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart (once you get to truly know each other)!
Tater is an energetic, clever boy who we believe may be a Lab and Shiba mix- and honestly, it fits him perfectly. From his adorable curly tail that wags with enthusiasm to his intelligence, independence and touch of stubbornness, Sweet Tater keeps life interesting!
He has a bright, life-filled smile that shows off his playful spirit and once he's comfortable with you his sweet side truly shines. Sweet Tater tends to bond closely with one person and may take some time to warm up to new people, so he'll do best in a quiet, adult-only home with an experienced owner. One that understands that trust is something earned and may take time, but when it happens it's incredibly rewarding for both of you!
While Tater can be dog selective, usually doing best with calm, docile and submissive dogs who don't challenge him, we recommend he be the only pet in the home so he can fully relax and thrive. As for feline companions Sweet Tater has a high prey drive and would not do well in a home with a cat.
Sweet Tater would love a home with a large yard to run in or a person who enjoys frequent walks and outdoor time. He has energy to burn and benefits greatly from both physical and mental enrichment. Speaking of enrichment - this boy is very smart! He loves puzzle toys like kongs and excels at scent based activities, especially when treats are hidden around the yard. Watching him carefully sniff out every last treat hidden in the yard is a true testament to his intelligence.
When playtime rolls around, Sweet Tater enjoys toys and proudly shows off his talents for expertly dismantling them - durable toys are highly recommended! He's still in need of continued training and a patient, committed owner willing to work through his stubborn streak to uncover the loyal, affectionate companion underneath.
If you are an experienced dog owner looking for a unique, intelligent and deeply rewarding bond, Sweet Tater may be the perfect match for you. Give him the time, structure and understanding he needs and he'll repay you with devotion, personality and plenty of tail wags!
