My story

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

He might have the name of a fast-food chain, but his specialty is slow, leisurely naps on the couch.

That’s what you can expect from Taco John, a 78-pound, 3.5-year-old pit mix with a heart of gold. Since he arrived as a stray, his history is a mystery, but his future is sure to be filled with snuggles.

Generally a laid-back guy, Taco John is ready for a lazy afternoon on the couch or a nice, long stroll through the neighborhood. He seems to enjoy medium-to-low-energy playmates, so he might do well in a home with another dog. Based on his calm personality, we think he could also fit in with cats and kids, though we always recommend slow and controlled introductions.

This handsome boy is already neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all his vaccinations and preventatives.

If you are interested in taking home this good boy, reach out to us at 920-733-1717 or adopt@foxvalleypets.org. You can also make an appointment online or feel free to take a peek during our open hours!
