About Tai
Tai is a one-year-old super mutt with obvious Basenji influence, weighing about 49 pounds and sporting a short, soft coat of apricot, black, and tan. He came from the Long Beach shelter and arrived quiet and shut down. With time, Tai’s playful, sweet personality starts to show—especially around other dogs. For him, another confident, outgoing dog in the house is essential; he learns by watching his canine pals and feels much braver with a buddy. Tai needs a patient adopter who’s willing to go slow and let him build trust. He thrives in a low-traffic home with lots of love and someone willing to invest real time into helping him blossom. Having another social dog for him to learn from isn’t just preferred—it’s non-negotiable for Tai’s happiness. Click apply to start the adoption process.
