Story
This is Famoso or Fam as we call him. He is a big lover boy obsessed with the people he loves. I “adopted” him when he was almost 4 years old now 5 from a woman who had just lost her husband and fam was his dog. The woman did have a very young daughter he grew up with. I do not have kids but have very young siblings that he is perfectly fine around. He is good with female dogs not really sure about other males. Never been around cats at least while he has been with me. I am struggling health wise and money wise and do not give him the attention or things he needs. He is a very good boy just needs a little obedience training. Can have a few accidents in the house overnight but other than that he we bark or cry in front of you if he needs to go out! He has never been a chewer and is pretty good about being left out. Fenced in yard is a plus but he’s more of a couch potato. Adopter MUST get him fixed. He was used for breeding by previous owner. If you are interested please reach out!

Story
Roscoe is a 5 year old Doberman/Rottweiler mix. We rescued him at 4 months old and later learned that he had been abused for his first 4 months of life. We never saw any signs of aggression until a couple years ago when he bit someone at a coffee shop who had stuck their hand in my car window to pet him. Since then, he’s bit 2 more people, & just recently got aggressive with my two year old. With all that being said, he really is the sweetest boy in the world and loves his people so hard. He just has a lot of triggers and anxiousness due to being previously abused and would thrive with someone who has no small children and is willing to put in all the time and training it takes to create a safe and happy life for him.

Story
Hello! My name is Zappa, and I'm a bundle of joy who loves to cuddle, play, and explore the outdoors. I'm always ready for an adventure, but be warned: I have a high prey drive and can't resist chasing after squirrels. A fenced-in yard would be perfect for me to run and play safely. I'm a big fan of pets and cuddles, especially from my foster parents. I get along wonderfully with my foster brother Ares, and we have a blast playing together. I thrive when I have plenty of toys to keep me entertained, so make sure to keep me busy to avoid boredom. I'm almost fully housebroken, with only the occasional accident inside. During meal times, my foster parents separate me from Ares because I can't resist trying to sneak his food! I'm crate trained and will happily go in on command. I am beginning to experience some hip dysplasia, with flattening in my femoral area. While the vet doesn't recommend surgery at this time, it's something that might be needed later in life. For now, I take joint supplements and Galliprant as needed to stay comfortable. If you're looking for a loving and playful companion with a zest for life, I'm your pup! Can't wait to meet you and become part of your family. Adoption Fee: $ 200 Estimated Date of Birth: Unknown Intake Reason: transfer from local animal control Animal will be spayed and up to date on vaccines, and microchipped prior to adoption. If their kennel card on display at TAPS shelter facility is marked as unaltered, the animal will be altered prior to being released for adoption. Animal stage may change from time to time based on surgery and medical status. TAPS strives to keep kennel cards as up to date as possible with current information but from time to time, information may change and a new kennel card may be pending. Full and current vaccination schedule and medical records along with any behavioral disclosures will be provided at time of adoption.
