About Tigger

Earl is a 5-year-old Black Labrador Retriever/Spaniel mix who's seen more than his share of hard times. After losing his owner, Earl ended up at a shelter where his life almost ended too soon because of a misdiagnosed health issue. Thankfully, he was given a proper chance—turns out, he just needed to be neutered and treated for an infection. Earl is healthy now and looking for someone to stand by him for the long haul. This easygoing guy is a pro with crates, fully house trained, and walks nicely on a leash. His mellow attitude makes him an undemanding yet loyal companion, ideal for someone who values steadiness in a dog. He gets along well with other dogs, so he'd fit right into a home with canine pals. Earl can be adopted anywhere in the U.S. and Canada, so don't let distance be a barrier. He's just looking for people who won't let him down this time. Ready to fall in love?
