Story
🐾🤎 Well hello there! My name is Tigger! 🤎🐾I'm a 4-year-old, 72-pound Plott Hound/Chow Chow mix, and I'm a big, brindle bundle of love! I'm handsome, goofy, and 100% convinced that every human I meet should have plenty of time for petting me. 😍 I've got the sweetest brown eyes that are just a tiny bit crossed, a few adorable black spots on my tongue, and a big personality to match my big size! I'm a total lovebug and professional snuggle buddy. If you're petting me and decide you've had enough, I'll gently nudge your hand to remind you that I haven't had enough yet. 😂💕 I'm happiest when I'm right beside my people, soaking up attention and enjoying their company. My story is a little bittersweet. I was dumped as a puppy on the doorstep of a very kind older woman who took me in and gave me a wonderful life. She and I were best friends, and I was used to always having a two- or four-legged companion around. Unfortunately, as she has gotten older and begun experiencing health problems, she made the incredibly difficult and selfless decision to find me another home. ❤️ I haven't done anything wrong—I just need a new family who will love me as much as she did. I'm a calm, mellow, friendly fellow who gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, kiddos, and people of all ages, including the elderly. I'm gentle and respectful, and I really just want to be part of the family. I don't particularly care for being alone, but I'm not destructive. I'm simply used to having companionship and would thrive in a home where someone is around often, or where I have another friendly furry friend to keep me company. 🐶🏡 I'm used to having plenty of room to roam out in the country, but believe it or not, I'm an indoor kind of guy. I'd much rather be inside with my people where I can keep you company, supervise your activities, and possibly claim a spot on the couch. 😉 I'm fully house trained, crate trained, and know how to use a doggie door. I'm also a wonderful leash walker! I enjoy peaceful walks and exploring alongside my person. 🚶♂️🐾Car rides are still a little scary for me because I haven't had much experience with them. 🚗 I load up, but I'm anxious once I'm in the vehicle. With regular trips, patience, treats, and the reassurance of being able to see my person, I'm confident I can learn that car rides mean adventures—not something to worry about. If I can rest my head or paw in your lap for reassurance, even better! I'm a smart and observant boy who loves to learn and is eager to please. I already know my name, sit, paw, and down, and I'm a fantastic listener. Mostly, though, I'm looking for someone who wants a big, goofy, gentle companion who will happily follow you around, curl up beside you, and make sure you never run out of love. If you're looking for a dog who comes with 72 pounds of sweetness, a whole lot of cuddles, and a built-in hand-nudging system when you stop petting too soon, I think we might be a perfect match! 🤎🐾📞 Call the Humane Society of the Ouachitas at 479-394-5682 to find out more about me. I can't wait to meet my forever family!****************All animals at HSO are current on their vaccinations and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption.
