Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Tyson, a gentle couch potato ready to join your family! Tyson is a 5-year-old, 75-pound white-and-beige sweetheart who’s as friendly and easygoing as they come. Low-energy by nature, Tyson is the perfect companion for someone who appreciates laid-back vibes and quiet companionship. He’s been a star at the shelter, impressing staff with his polite manners and gentle demeanor! Tyson is fantastic on walks and loves being petted! He will happily solicit more attention once he feels comfortable with you. While Tyson isn’t the most active player, he does enjoy small plush toys. His preferred play style is to hold the toy in his mouth and relax with it rather than running around. Despite his laid-back nature, he`s easy to engage in light playtime! Tyson’s interaction with other dogs has been calm and polite. During a meet-and-greet with another dog at the shelter, Tyson exchanged polite nose-to-nose sniffing and walked in circles with his new friend. Though he takes a reserved approach, he shows potential to connect with other dogs, and future introductions will help assess compatibility. Tyson is searching for a loving home that matches his mellow personality. If you’re looking for a friendly, gentle companion who enjoys snuggles, peaceful walks, and the occasional toy session, Tyson will fit perfectly into your life. Come meet him today—your next best friend is waiting!
