Here's what the humans have to say about me:
SIR TACO BELL GRANDA (AKA: Taco) is brave, loyal, silly, and all around the best protector your family could ask for. Because of his size and the volume of his bark, Taco will defend you and your family against any harm. He is loyal to his people and aims to please them with all he does.
Taco is excellent with his hairless pup siblings (ages 5 and 7) and plays well with his furry sister, Nikki. He dislikes cats, squirrels, and as of recently has a personal vendetta against lizards – they creep out of the bushes and scare this BIG GOOFY BOY!
Taco’s family loves him dearly and only wishes the best future for him. This future would be with a confident family who is familiar with larger protector breeds such as him. He does well with commands, but could use some gentle reminders sometimes about manners – particularly not sneaking food off the counter! Taco’s family recently was forced to downsize, and he does not have adequate room to protect his territory properly. Ideally, his forever home would be with a family who has a nice size yard for him to roam and protect.
It is important that Taco’s new family be prepared and equipped with patience, understanding and positive reinforcement. While he is the bestest boy, he sometimes gets big feelings that he needs to talk to you about. (and yes, he will talk to you! He is a WONDERFUL, HOME ENTERTAINMENT CENTER, lol! ) He just LOVES s a gentle hand that can continue his training and provide all the love and care this beautiful boy deserves.
ARE YOU PREPARED TO BE ADORED BY THE BESTEST BOY DOGGY TACO?
RSVP with a PHONE NUMBER as well as the BEST TIME to schedule a call when you can answer the phone so we dont have to play telephone tag with our volunteers, lol!
