My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Make sure you let us know you saw Tango on Adopt-a-pet. Good news I'm going to get the training I need!! Are you ready to commit to 5 private lessons and 6 months of group training to make me the best dog I can be? If you're up for forming a great relationship and giving this a shot, please speak with the ladies at the front counter. If you are not up for the commitment or unsure you can follow through then keep walking. We're looking for serious adopters only! We love this dog and will not see him returned again. Tango deserves the best, if you have the time you'll get the best of him in the long run! Yes, this is like signing a marriage certificate. ***Talk about lug head, Tango is as sweet as he is goofy. Weighing in at a whopping 80 pounds...and not knowing it, totally thinks he's a lap dog...Tango will need someone with large dog experience. We are working on leash walking, he likes to jump up and hold the leash in his mouth, we are engaging him with treats and distraction. Tango likes to play outside, he loves chew toys, after good exercise he will crash for a nap. He loves hanging out in the office with everyone and meeting new people. Tango had been adopted and returned, he was too interested in the cats in the home. Tango has now been in the shelter environment too long and is showing reactivity to other dogs. This guy needs out of here ASAP!!! Tango is a sweet boy, we know his people are out there, he needs patience and an active lifestyle. Please call the shelter for more information. *fenced yard required*
