If you come to meet Tajin, this sweet boy may be a bit shy at first - but just briefly. He will soon warm up to you and begin giving you so many kisses! He'll become your very affectionate and loyal companion.

In his foster home, Tajin's perfect day started with waking up, eating breakfast, going for a walk, and coming home, where he loves to play with his foster's big dog. Then he wants to cuddle with his foster mom and take a nap. And when he wakes up, he likes to chew his fluffy toys - and get more petting. If visiting friends sit on the couch, he will hop up and cuddle with them and hope they won't stand up to leave. He also sniffed a 1-year-old baby but lost interest.

Tajin walks well on his leash. At home, he's a smart boy who's working on his obedience training. He already understands sit and paw and is quickly learning to go potty outside. He's also comfortable in his crate and sleeps well there when his foster is away from home.

This playful, curious boy will love a home with patient parents who can be with him most of the day, and he will enjoy a doggie playmate. Come meet this adorable boy. Offer him your ID and he'll become your cuddle bunny!

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!

Come meet your new best friend
