About Tater

Meet Tater! Your next best friend is waiting. At just 7 months old, this sweet, fun-loving Heeler mix girl is all set to find her forever family. Tater is wonderful with kids and gets along beautifully with other dogs. She’s brimming with personality and joy! Mostly house trained, she’s currently refining her leash skills and crate training. Like any young pup, she’s learning all the foundations that will help her be an amazing lifelong companion. However, Tater has a high prey drive, which means cats and chickens probably won’t be a good match. Given her playful nature, a home with older kids would suit her best. Tater has so much love to give, and with a family willing to teach her, take her on adventures, and include her in daily life, she’s sure to become an incredible best friend. Could Tater be your missing piece? She’s eager to find her people!
