About Taja
Meet Taja, a mixed-breed dog looking for a fresh start after arriving at the shelter as a stray. Taja is currently living in a pop-up crate due to overcrowding, but she’s ready to find her forever home. This gentle pup needs a calm environment, where she can gain confidence at her own pace. When she feels safe, Taja shows her sweet personality, especially with the help of tasty treats and quiet moments. Taja would thrive in a low-traffic adult-only home. She needs someone who understands her shy nature and can provide a predictable routine along with positive reinforcement during training. Because of her sensitivity, she may not do well with young children. While Taja has met other dogs at the shelter, her history with them is unknown. Slow introductions are important, as she can feel overwhelmed by overly excited interactions. Although she can be timid during walks outside, a little coaxing and encouragement help her embrace adventure. With the right person, Taja will blossom into a loving companion who truly appreciates the kindness she deserves. You can also feel good about adopting Taja, as her adoption fee is waived and she comes with a $50 Chewy gift card. ***Click apply to start the adoption process.***
