About Taco

Meet Taco, your future adventure buddy! This lively puppy is bursting with energy and is eager to explore all the joys life has to offer. Taco has a penchant for collecting squeaky toys and bones, though he once mistook a shoe for a chew toy—funny moments like that are sure to make you smile. He's great at handling and is learning leash training, making him all the more ready for outdoor escapades. Taco is sociable, getting along well with people of all ages, and shares his toys and snacks generously. After a day of play, he settles in nicely for a good night’s sleep, often after a chat about the day’s adventures. Currently weighing around 34 pounds, Taco is expected to reach 50-60 pounds when fully grown. Taco was surrendered by his previous owner due to circumstances they could no longer manage, but he's ready for a new chapter in his life. He’ll be neutered before he goes to his forever home.
