About Puppy Tiva

Hi there! I'm Tiva, and I'm quite possibly the cutest puppy you'll ever meet – at least, that's what my puppy brain tells me! I'm about 5 months old and growing so fast, currently tipping the scales at around 45 lbs. I'm told I'm going to be a big girl! My littermates and I ended up at a shelter through no fault of our own, but thankfully, the wonderful folks at Bay Area German Shepherd Rescue brought me into foster care, and now I'm ready to find my forever home!

I'm a confident pup who absolutely loves new adventures and meeting new people. My favorite spot? A warm lap for snuggles, especially when accompanied by generous belly rubs! I'm also working on my manners and try my best not to jump, though I might forget sometimes with an enthusiastic greeting. I walk nicely on a leash and am a pro at taking treats ever so gently – they are almost as good as belly rubs! I also enjoy playing with polite dogs and have a wonderful best friend in my foster home, a big 90-lb. German Shepherd who's very patient with my playful chasing. While my ears may not stand up, no matter how much my human coaches them, I'm confident my charm will win you over! I am still a puppy, so I explore the world with my mouth. If something isn't attached, it's fair game unless my foster mom says "No!"

Ongoing Health

Training & Support

I'm still learning about the world, and I explore with my mouth! I do listen when told "No," but I'm always ready for the next new thing.
