Story
Meet Tyra Banks, a five year old Malamute/Great Dane mix weighing 80 pounds.Tyra Banks is the supermodel of the dog world! With some of the longest legs we’ve ever seen, Tyra is truly a sight to behold. She’s so tall and elegant that we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some Great Dane in her family tree — though she could just as easily be an extra statuesque Malamute mix. Either way, this girl turns heads everywhere she goes. You really have to see her in person to appreciate just how stunningly tall she is. Ever wanted a dog taller than you? Tyra may be your dream girl — part dog, part horse!But Tyra is more than just beauty. She’s a friendly, affectionate companion who loves being close to her people and would make an excellent hiking or adventure buddy. She walks well on leash, plays gently, enjoys a good game of tug-of-war, and is wonderfully treat motivated. She already knows “sit” and “shake” and is happy to show off her manners for a snack and some praise.Tyra is at that perfect age where she’s left the puppy chaos behind but still has plenty of happy, active years ahead of her. Because she does have a high prey drive, she would likely do best in a home without cats or small animals.If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind companion with beauty, brains, personality, and legs for days, Tyra Banks is ready to strut her way right into your heart.This pet is available for adoption on 3/16/2026 at 5:25 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
