Tye

Dalmatian

Male, Adult

Taunton, MA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Tye is 5 years old. He is very sweet and active. We took him in 4 months ago because his owner had new health problems that prevented him from having the care he needed. Unfortunately Tye and my chihuahua do not get along and I have had to keep them seperate in the house. Tye loves to be outside and uses an invisible fence with no issues. He is 100% house trained. He is very protective and loyal to his owner. Small children would not be suitable as I am not sure how he would be around them. Tye had surgery in September to remove bladder stones that are very common with Dalmatians and had a preventative surgery to prevent a blockage in the future. This does not affect his health at all or require any additional care. He is a very healthy 5 year old dog. I am not asking for a rehoming fee but applicants will need an appropriate home for this size dog and specific breed. Applicants need to be knowledgeable on the Dalmatian breed

Story

This is our 6 year old dog Layla. She was born in Georgia in 2019 and we adopted her from great dog new england rescue. She was one out of a litter of 4 that was removed from a hoarder house. She has been an amazing dog, very silly and spunky, loves all the attention and cuddling, she has a big personality. We are looking to find a new home for Layla for a couple of reasons. We now have a toddler at home and another baby on the way. Layla has not adjusted well to being around our toddler despite our efforts. We also have another 8 year old dog who she is starting to fight with more. We are not entirely sure why the relationship between the two has deteriorated so much. For these reasons we want Layla to find a home without young kids/babies and without other dogs. We really think Layla would thrive as the only dog in the home.
