My story

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

Meet **Tanner**, a gentle giant with a heart of gold! Tanner may be a bit timid at first and can be easily startled by new experiences, but once he settles in, his sweet and affectionate nature shines through. Though he's a big boy, Tanner walks really well on a leash-he's surprisingly graceful for his size, enjoying his walks without pulling, and taking in the sights at a calm, steady pace.

Tanner is a huge fan of toys, especially when it comes to a good game of fetch! He loves chasing after balls and will happily bring them back for another round of play. His playful side is balanced by his loving nature-he's affectionate and enjoys spending time with his people. While he may initially jump up to greet you in excitement, he's easily redirected and settles down quickly.

Tanner has had positive experiences with kids and is gentle with them, making him a great family companion. His affectionate personality and love for play make him a great match for a home where he can get plenty of attention, gentle guidance, and of course, plenty of fun toys to enjoy!

If you're looking for a sweet, loving, and playful dog who may take a little time to warm up but is ready to be your loyal companion once he does, Tanner could be the perfect fit for you. With his gentle nature and love of fetch, he's sure to bring lots of joy to his forever home!
