Tiana is a sweet and loving dog that is happiest when she's with her people - whether cuddling and accepting pets, napping nearby, or exploring the outdoors. She is house trained and crate trained, and she walks and runs well on leash. She also knows Sit, Down, Shake, and Go to Bed. She loves a hike or long walk, but in the home she is very relaxed with calm energy. She lives with two 13-year-olds and a 7-year-old, all of whom she adores. Tiana likes to chase flies and bugs in the backyard, and will make you laugh at her antics. She also likes to nap in the shower, which is her favorite cool spot on a warm day.
Tiana is very smart and picks up on cues easily. She listens well and loves food (especially cheese treats), which helps with training. Tiana goes to basic obedience training once a week and is building a great training foundation. She also participates in weekly pack walks for socialization and leash training. This smart girl is ready to wow you with her skills! These activities are building her confidence and strengthening her bond with her foster family. She'd love to continue training with her adoptive family as well!
Tiana is working on building her confidence both with being in the wide world with new stimuli, and also with being alone. When out and about, she looks to her people for cues on how to act and react, so she does great with a confident handler whose lead she can follow. Time in the crate helps her to decompress and feel safe when her foster family is away. She does wonderful with most dogs with a proper introduction and just wants to play. She can sometimes be nervous with a new dog, especially if it is bigger than her, and will bark if she gets stressed or overstimulated. Slow introductions with walking and sniff breaks in between can help her gain confidence and relax around a dog she is initially unsure of.
Overall Tiana is a lovely dog and a gentle giant who would love to be your best friend and companion.

Additional adoption info
The first step in the adoption process is an application. We also ask for a letter of recommendation from a current or past veterinarian you have used for any other animals you have or have had in the past. This letter is basically the doctor recommending you to adopt based on your history of taking good medical care of your animals.
If you rent, we ask for proof that you are allowed to have a dog in your home. That's it paperwork-wise. Then we can work to find the dog that is the perfect fit for your family. If you do not have a vet that you have used in the recent past, no problem! We will schedule a home visit.
The adoption fee is a donation of your choice with a minimum of $250.
Your pet has been spayed/neutered and will come with a full medical history as best as we can give. When the dogs come to us they see a vet right away for an intake exam so we know as much as possible regarding their current health. They are given vaccines and we take blood, fecal, and urine to send to the lab to look for any other health issues that we can treat.

More about this rescue
Last Chance at Life is an all-breed rescue and adoption organization. We have a special fondness for Boxers, birds, and ANY pet in need of medical care. We take in animals from all over San Diego County. Our rescues come to us from local shelters and humane societies, owners who can no longer properly care for them, and through other rescue groups. Most often these animals are facing euthanasia because of medical or behavioral needs. Because of this, we are truly their “Last Chance at Life.”
Some of our pets are in foster homes, and others are cared for at our Adoption Center in Oceanside, CA.
All of our pets receive the very best in medical care from the doctors and staff at Mission Animal and Bird Hospital. The entire team is very committed to offering care to our pets in need and no short cuts are ever taken because these are rescue pets. Visit Mission Animal and Bird Hospital.
