Tamatoa—known to his friends as Tuesday—is a 2 to 3-year-old brindle pit mix with a knack for joy and easygoing fun. Originally adopted as a puppy, he came back to the rescue when his owner faced health issues. Now, Tuesday is thriving in his foster home, eager to learn and quick to bond. He’s picked up a good number of commands (sit, paw, lay down, leave it, place, look at me, go sniff) and is crate trained, making him a straightforward companion for someone who likes a dog that’s ready to figure things out with you. He strikes a balance between bursts of playful energy and serious couch-napping skills. After a session of training, exploring, or playing, he’ll happily curl up for a snooze. Tuesday gets along with other dogs when introduced properly and loves people, kids included. Because he’s got a high prey drive, a cat-free home suits him best. He’s working on not jumping when excited, but is quite motivated to please and learns fast. Anxious at times but improving steadily, Tuesday shows real resilience. If you want a loyal, spirited sidekick who brings energy, cuddles, and a lot of heart, Tuesday could be your guy. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
