Story
Tavi came to us after the sudden passing of a family member. She’s a very sweet, loving, and energetic dog that wants nothing more than to be by your side. She’s extremely smart and eager to please. She’s great with cats, kids, and small dogs. She hasn’t had much exposure to larger breed dogs, so she tends to be more hesitant around them. Unfortunately we just don’t have the time to give her the attention and care she deserves. She’d make a great companion in any active family household. She’s good in car rides and loves to adventure and explore.
