Story
Meet Tater the Turd!
Yes… he earned that name honestly. But once you meet him, you’ll quickly realize this little guy is more lovable rascal than troublemaker.
Tater is a 3.5-year-old Dachshund/Chihuahua mix weighing about 16 pounds. He’s the perfect mix of playful and laid-back. While he enjoys running around the yard with other dogs, he’s not much of a toy guy — he’d much rather curl up on the couch and relax with his people.
Tater is crate trained, potty trained, and learning to walk nicely on a leash. He rides well in the car but prefers to sit close to someone so he can feel safe and secure.
Because Tater can be a little nervous in new environments, he will need a secure privacy fence. A chain-link fence likely wouldn’t be the best option, as he has been known to try to make a great escape if he gets scared (hence the name!).
The good news is that in the right home, Tater settles in nicely. He is good with other dogs and does well with kids, and he really enjoys having dog friends to run around the yard with.
Tater is also very food motivated, which makes him a great candidate for continued training and bonding time with his new family.
If you’re looking for a fun little character with a goofy personality and a love for couch time, Tater might just be your perfect match.
