About Tiki

Tiki is the classic example of a rescued spirit who’s gone from shell-shocked to showstopper. About two years old and a Cane Corso/Dane/Bully mix, he spent his early life knowing little kindness until rescue pulled him from the brink. Months later, he’s a different dog—a big, silly, affectionate goofball who’s learned to trust people again. Tiki’s days are now filled with curiosity, play, and a steady sense that safety is real. He thrives around other big dogs (his best friend in foster is a 130-pound mastiff), does great with cats, and is respectful with older kids. Still, he’s a guardian breed at heart and absolutely needs owners who will commit to his daily exercise and keep polishing his socialization and boundaries. Tiki is active, loyal, and gentle once you’re in his circle. He’s currently in a foster home in Sacramento and ready for a home that understands big, bright-hearted breeds. By the way, Tiki was born November 18—which makes him a Scorpio, known for resilience and intensity. He’s proof that second chances can bring out the best. Click apply to start the adoption process.
