My story

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

Meet Tato, the energetic, curious, and fun-loving pup who's ready to bring plenty of joy and laughter to your home! Tato is house trained, does well in his crate when you're away, and loves to entertain himself with his toys-he's especially funny when playing fetch with himself, tossing toys into the air with glee. His large, expressive ears and snaggle tooth are just the beginning of his charm, and his "spaghetti tail" is always wagging with excitement when he's happy!

This smart and eager-to-please boy learns quickly and is highly treat motivated, making training a fun and rewarding experience for both of you. Tato is an absolute social butterfly, excited to meet new people and always ready to make new friends. He enjoys playing with other dogs, going on walks, and is always up for a game with his favorite toys or a tasty snack.

Tato would thrive in a home where his people are around often to give him the love, attention, and playtime he craves. He's an active guy who needs regular enrichment and exercise to keep his mind and body happy. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate, and playful companion who will keep you laughing, Tato might just be the perfect fit for you!
