Tater - FREE TO ADOPT!

Tater is FREE to adopt if picked up in TN! Looking for a relaxed, food-loving buddy with a bit of pep in his step? Meet Tater! This 5.5-year-old mixed breed, possibly Jack Russell and Shiba Inu, weighs in at about 40 lbs and is the perfect blend of laid-back and lively. Tater's general vibe is pretty chill-he's a champion couch potato. But watch out, squirrels! When he sees one, he turns into a squirrel-chasing superstar. He's very food-motivated and will eagerly trot into his crate for a treat. This guy knows his way around a "Sit" command and definitely understands "Crate." Fully housetrained and a lover of treats, Tater is the kind of dog who will ask to go out when he needs to. He enjoys a good chase with a ball and adores attention almost as much as he loves his snacks. Change can be a bit daunting for him, so he needs some time to adjust to new environments and people. Tater prefers to be the only pet in the household-he's not too keen on sharing the spotlight with other animals. He's happiest when he's the center of attention. He walks nicely on a leash and rides well in the car, making him a pleasant companion for outings. The ideal home for Tater is a calm environment with a fenced yard where he can roam and relax. If you're looking for a trained, easy-going dog who will love you endlessly (and ask for treats frequently), Tater is your perfect match! Bring Tater home and get ready for a lifetime of love and cozy couch cuddles! Interested in adopting?
