Not his favorite place!
Though his Petfinder name is Skylar, we call him Tiger because of his beautiful striped brindle markings.
I’d like to say he’s a studly guy, but he’s just been neutered. This sleekly muscled, large dog – 80 pounds at 10 months – craves human companionship, and is looking for an owner that will give him lots of attention and activity. From what I’ve seen of him, he does well with most other dogs, and would be responsive to obedience training.
Tiger has been at the shelter for many months; his more petite sister got adopted when they were still puppies. He hasn’t been at the fairs much lately, so I was glad to see him Saturday. We tried to walk him frequently, as the poor guy was bored in his crate. The last time I put him on the leash, he wanted to check out the inside of PetSmart. I thought he just craved a change of scene, but it turns out he wanted to go shopping. After cruising a few aisles, he found what he was looking for, and picked a spiffy, sturdy ball-and-rope combo from the shelf. He not only chose a cool toy, but one that was on sale! Good dog! He carried it to the register, waited patiently for it to be scanned, and contentedly took it back to his crate.
Do you, or anyone you know, have the energy, time and toys to keep Tiger occupied? A huge heart and a monster yard would be perfect for this guy! He’d love to meet you at our three day adoption event September 11th through 13th, so please stop by the PetSmart on Powers Blvd. to make his acquaintance.
Colorado Springs Pet Adoptions every Saturday from 11-5 at the PetSmart across from Chapel Hills Mall – 7680 N. Academy Blvd. (except for September 12th, when the fair will be from 10-7 at the PetSmart on Powers Blvd.)
Please visit the San Luis Valley Animal Welfare Society’s website, where you can find out more about the organization and see their partial list of adoptable pets.
Please remember to spay and neuter; there aren’t enough homes for them all.
