Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Tamarin, a sweet and lovable pup with a heart full of cuddles and a spirit ready for adventure! Tamarin is the perfect mix of independent and affectionate-she's housebroken, can be left to roam free in the house for hours, and is happy to entertain herself when you have things to do. But when it's cuddle time, she's all in-whether it's lounging on the couch or snuggling in bed, Tamarin loves to be close to her people. She's also great at meeting new friends and gives the warmest greetings once she knows visitors are there to show her love.
When it comes to playtime, Tamarin is always ready! While she's not interested in balls, she absolutely loves playing fetch and tug-of-war with stuffed animals. She's a playful spirit who enjoys running around the yard, chasing squirrels, and often leaps and bounds like a deer when she heads outside. Tamarin also enjoys watching the world go by, especially keeping an eye out for other dogs on walks or in the neighborhood-she'll make sure you know when she spots them! Though she loves her outdoor fun, she's equally content to relax and enjoy some quiet time indoors.
Tamarin's stunning good looks match her sweet personality-her unique eyes are a striking mix of light brown and blue, and her coat is as delightful as chocolate chip ice cream, perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth! Whether you're looking for a cuddly companion or an adventure buddy, Tamarin is ready to bring joy, love, and a little playful fun into your home. Come meet this beautiful girl today and see for yourself just how special she is!
