About Tia

Tia is a spirited and intelligent girl who’s been waiting for a home for over a year. Known for her resilience and playful nature, she loves to retrieve toys and engage with her humans. This affectionate dog thrives on attention and is keen to bond with someone who appreciates her lively spirit. At 2 and a half years old, Tia is ready for a family where she can be the only pet, as she tends to guard her food when around other dogs. She’s spent time with her canine companions but would flourish in a home that offers one-on-one time. An experienced dog owner would be ideal for Tia, as she enjoys training and is eager to learn. Tia is doggie door trained and current on all vaccinations. She deserves a loving home that recognizes the unique challenges that black dogs face in adoption.
