TAFFY - PUG / BEAGLE / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pug / Beagle / Mixed (short coat). We love Taffy, and we know you will, too! Taffy is estimated to be around 7 months old, and she is a bubbly girl with an irresistibly sweet personality. She brings so much happiness wherever she goes, and it's pretty impossible not to fall in love with her adorable grin. Taffy is a moderately active girl who would love a family that can keep up with her puppy energy. Taffy weighs about 17lbs and appears to be fully grown. Taffy was found with her brother and brought to a Central California animal shelter. Due to chronic overcrowding, the puppies found themselves on the euthanasia list. Her brother went to a different rescue, and Taffy came to us. She has blossomed in foster care and has gained lots of confidence. She went from an insecure girl to a brave and curious pup. Taffy is such a joy to be around, and she charms everyone she meets with her affectionate and goofy personality. She would thrive in a home with lots of people to love on her. Taffy loves playtime and has even convinced the older dogs in her foster home to romp around with her. She is a very food-motivated girl and will need a family who can continue working on her basic manners with her. She would be a great candidate for group training classes. Taffy loves other dogs and would absolutely love a playful doggie companion in her new home. She also may do well as an only dog with lots of opportunities to socialize with dog friends. We haven't seen Taffy around cats, but we think she could do well living with dog-savvy cats after a slow introduction. Taffy can be jumpy/mouthy when excited, but could do well living with older kids who should can't knock over when excited. Taffy has been doing great with her housetraining using a dog door. She is still adjusting to being left in her crate, but she has done well being left in a contained outdoor area with the resident dogs for short periods. Taffy could do well living in an apartment with someone who has a schedule that would allow them to slowly acclimate her to being home alone in a crate. Taffy is such a sweet girl who deserves a family just as great as her. If you think that could be you, submit an application today! Taffy's adoption fee is $500.
