About Commander

Commander is all about being close to you-snuggling up or even sharing your pillow, if you'll let him! He is a big guy, though, and sometimes he forgets just how big he is, so get ready for lots of love. On walks, Commander likes to take his time, sniffing everything and making sure everyone knows he has been there. Tug toys are his absolute favorite, and he loves a good game!

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

35°F to 46°F

Mild temperatures but persistent rain and overcast skies define Tacoma winters. A waterproof jacket for your pet and rain gear for yourself are essential for daily walks. Point Defiance Park remains beautiful even in winter, and the forest canopy provides some shelter from rain on trail walks.

Mar – May

Rain gradually decreases and temperatures warm, bringing the Pacific Northwest to life. The waterfront trails become increasingly pleasant as sunshine returns. Muddy trail conditions persist into April, so plan for post-walk paw cleaning after forest walks.
