Story
🐾 Meet the lovely Tasi! 🐾Tasi is just under 2 years old and about 45 pounds of sweetness, personality, and fun! Her original name was Today… actually not so original 🤭Aside from being beautiful, Tasi is a total love bug. ❤️ She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves to wrestle, jump around, and play with dogs of all sizes. She is submissive with the dog she’s currently fostered with and has shown zero food guarding. Cats are unknown.Tasi is completely house trained as long as she has access to outside and sleeps happily on her own bed at night. She does pull a little on leash, but does much better on a longer lead where she can explore and get all those important sniffs in!She takes her yard-patrol duties very seriously 😂 and loves making sure everything on the property is safe. She’ll bark outside to let everyone know she’s “on the job,” but it isn’t excessive. Inside, she’s happy cuddling up next to her people or simply relaxing.Tasi is a higher-energy girl who would love an active family and would do great with another playful dog. She’s become a favorite of both the people and dogs she meets! Because she can still have some puppy-like energy, we aren’t sure how she would do with very young children, but she has shown zero aggression toward anyone or anything.She’s treat motivated, takes treats very gently, is eager to learn, and is an all-around delight to have around. Her foster sums it up best: Tasi is an absolute jewel. 💎❤️
