Ideal Home/Adopter: Tig would love a big, fenced yard or an active owner as he loves to run. He's friendly to all people, but little kids make him nervous at times if they are grabbing at him, so a home with older kids is recommended. He would love a doggie companion in his new home (but it's not required). He loves to scent track, play chase with a dog friend, or run around in the yard. A home that will allow him to sleep on the bed and nap on the couches. He is spoiled and loves to snuggle all the way under blankets near a dog companion or his people. He loves walks and would be an awesome hiking partner.
Likes: He is goofy, excitable, friendly almost to a fault. He gets super excited when you come home after leaving but quickly settles down. He loves bully sticks and liverwurst. He is not big into toys unless it is to play tug-o-war, he would rather chase his dog friend, scope the yard out or do a treat puzzle to stimulate his brain. He loves being with his family and enjoys pets and rewards. Sleeping on the couch or bed, or anywhere he wants really. He is happiest on the couch next to his people or dog sibling.
Dislikes: He doesn't like his feet touched, or his ears much. Not a fan of the car. He doesn't like being left alone, but does well in his crate when his people aren't home.
What makes this dog special: Tigger gets so excited to see his people even if its just 10 minutes apart. He bounces up like Tigger from Winnie the pooh, hence his name. He does great with commands for treats like sit, stay, place, leave it, down and off. He loves when his people go outside with him so he can show off his zoomies. He loves to be rewarded with positive words when he nails his training. He can be a tad nervous with new places, people and dogs but once you give him the time he needs to adjust, he will fit right in on the couch in a cuddle puddle. He doesn't understand the concept of personal space and just wants to snuggle up nice and close. He's the perfect mix of chill cuddle buddy, playful and protector of the house. You will fall in love with his derpy facial expressions and his sweet personality.
