Tyler (New England Foster)
Age: Young
Gender: Male
Breeds: Shepherd, Hound
JUST ARRIVED IN NEW ENGLAND!
Meet Tyler, our sweet gentle big boy! This guy is very people-friendly and is looking for a family to take him on adventures, give him lots of love and squeaky toys.
Tyler was found as a stray and brought to the West Memphis Animal shelter until he was sprung by one of PAWS New England’s southern rescue partners. Tyler was a favorite at the shelter, and he had one dogwalker who fought hard for him to get out of the shelter and into rescue.
Tyler must have had a home at one time, he is housebroken and walks well on a leash. He loves to play, so an active household would be best.
He loves to play fetch with balls, but his favorite thing on the planet is squeaky toys. He loves plush toys, he loves rubber toys, but anything that makes a sounds he absolutely loves. His favorite toy at the shelter was a big squeaky, rubber pig that would oink every time he put it in his mouth, you could hear that pig oink from a long distance, and he loved it. He loved it so much the shelter had planned to send him with him, but sadly poor Oinky got left behind:/
NEW ENGLAND FOSTER INITIAL UPDATE:
- Tyler will make a wonderful family companion dog
- He gets along well with the resident dogs
- This boy enjoys the company of the children in his foster home
- He’s great on a leash and can easily be walked by an 11-year-old!!
- Tyler needs decent amount of space (inside and outside)
- Tyler’s frame is larger than his 85 pound foster sibling, so he is definitely still growing. He won’t be 70 pounds for long!
- Ty’s ideal home would have a fenced in yard. He loves to play fetch, and will entertain himself with a ball in the backyard.
- In order to be comfortable and able to stand up and turn around, he will need a large crate that is: 54L x 37W x 45H
If you think you might be an appropriate family for this amazing “gentle giant”, apply quickly!
We are sure this sweet guy is going to be popular!
