My story

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

Tony Hawk — Ready to Ride into Your Heart

At just 2 years old and about 60 pounds, Tony Hawk may be young, but he’s already got a smooth, steady style. This sweet guy looks like a mix of Terrier, American Staffordshire/Retriever, and Black Labrador — a winning combo for a loyal, affectionate companion. The shelter can feel like a half-pipe full of twists and turns, and sometimes it’s a bit overwhelming for Tony Hawk, but he never loses sight of his sweet, gentle nature.

Tony Hawk is a true skater at heart: he’s eager to roll through life alongside someone he trusts. He bonds deeply with people, loves attention, and is happiest when he’s cruising through walks or chilling close to his humans. His calm, kind personality makes him the perfect co-pilot for everyday adventures — whether it’s a stroll in the park or a cozy session on the couch.

This young rider is eager to please and quick to learn, ready to master new tricks with patience and guidance. With a safe, loving home, Tony Hawk will flip any ordinary day into something extraordinary, filling it with affection, loyalty, and joy. He’s ready for a foster or forever home that will let him land safely, show off his personality, and experience the love he truly deserves.

Tony Hawk is ready to ride the next chapter of his life — are you ready to catch him?
