About Tater

Tater is a young German Shepherd puppy with one irresistibly floppy ear and enough charm to melt just about any heart! He was born at the beginning of May and was surrendered to us at the end of June. This sweet little guy is playful, curious, and full of all the wonderful puppy antics you'd expect. He loves exploring, collecting toys, and wrestling with his foster siblings—even though they're much bigger than he is! Like any young puppy, Tater is looking for a family that's ready to invest in his future with positive training, continued socialization, patience, and lots of love. He's already off to a great start with potty training and has been keeping his crate clean with no accidents. When he's out and about, he'll need close supervision and a family that's ready to embrace all the fun (and work!) that comes with raising a puppy. In return, Tater promises endless laughs, unconditional love, loyal companionship, and a lifetime of adventures by your side. If you're looking for a playful, affectionate best friend to grow up with your family, Tater just might be the perfect match.
