Taco

Meet Taco!

Taco is a spirited four-year-old Labrador Retriever/Shepherd mix whose sunny tan coat and joyful personality make every day a little brighter. This handsome boy is affectionate, energetic, endlessly curious, and wonderfully silly, always finding new ways to make the people he loves laugh! Whether he is happily exploring on an off-leash walk, chasing a tossed rock with impressive enthusiasm, searching for chipmunks, or simply staying close to his favorite person, Taco brings warmth, loyalty, and entertainment wherever he goes. He is house-trained, crate-trained, neutered, microchipped, and current on his vaccinations.

Ideal Home

Taco needs a new loving home where he can be the only pet. He would benefit from experienced pet parents who understand resource guarding and can continue supporting his progress with calm, positive guidance. A quieter home without toddlers will help him feel comfortable and secure.

Ongoing Health

Taco requires a special diet due to a sensitive digestive system related to parvovirus as a puppy, but with the right nutrition, he continues to feel his best.

Training & Support

Taco is a well-trained companion who knows sit, stay, here, leave it, shake, and "on your bed," and he even comes running when he hears a whistle. He enjoys having a predictable routine and thrives when he has plenty of exercise, long walks, and opportunities to stretch his legs. He has overcome significant separation anxiety through patient training and positive reinforcement. He may bark or growl when surprised by strangers, hats, or unexpected movement in dim lighting, so gentle introductions help him settle with confidence.
