My story

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

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.



Tiger Eye is at-risk due to behavior concerns. Upon intake, he was tense bodied with a tucked tail, and lip licking, but with a slow approach he warms up quickly. Tiger Eye was brought to the Care Center due to being reactive towards a child in the home. His previous owners reported him to also be on-leash reactive towards strangers and unfamiliar dogs, escalating to hard barking and growling. In the care centers, he is social with handlers at times but has been reported to growl and lunge at both staff and members of the public on the street. Recently there was an incident where Tiger Eye bit a MOP on the arm during his street walk, but there was no broken skin and handler had to use intense leash pressure to redirect him. When returning to kennel, he has been observed to baulk and muscle as to be used as he will escalate to mouthing handlers hands. Medically, Tiger Eye is apparently underweight.

What my friends at ACC say about me:


I would do best in a home without very tiny humans, although I could be open to older human children once I meet them.


I don't always like to share my food, toys or bedding with other animals.


I'm ready to learn! I need a patient person who has the time to work on training with me.


I love getting pets and - you guessed it - snuggles!
