DESCRIPTION
Tigger is the kind of dog who quietly works his way into your heart. At around 1.5 years old, this handsome Lab/Black Mouth Cur mix was pulled from a local shelter into our foster program and has been doing better and better ever since. Away from the stress of the shelter environment, his sweet personality is really starting to shine.
While shelter life made him a little unsure at first, Tigger has been settling into home life beautifully. He loves attention from his people, enjoys snuggling up nearby, and is happiest in a calm home where he can continue building confidence at his own pace. He has a medium energy level overall - happy to join you for walks and adventures, but also perfectly content relaxing by your side afterward.
Tigger gets along well with other dogs, does well with kids, and has also been living successfully with cats in his foster home. He's learning quickly and has already made great progress with potty training in just a couple of weeks. Like many young dogs, he's still polishing up some manners, including leash walking, as he can get excited and pull when heading out for walks. He already knows "sit" and "shake" and is eager to keep learning.
Tigger is the kind of dog who may take a moment to settle in, but once he does, you'll have a loyal companion by your side. If you're looking for a sweet, gentle dog to grow with, Tigger may be your perfect match.
All Heart of America Humane Society dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Adoption fee is $250.
