Who wants a big hunk of chocolate marble cake? This stunningly good looking guy is Tigga and his motto must surely be 'go big or go home' because in both size and personality the Tiggster is a whole lotta dog to love! His bright eyes spark with intelligence and though he is a naturally strong boy he saves all his energy for ball play and lets me lead him calmly and easily on leash, using the facilities immediately and acting like a perfect gentleman. Once we're in one of the outdoor pens, the leash comes off, the tennis ball comes out and Tigga is riveted. He sits immediately when he sees the ball in my hand and once I throw it for him he is off! Soon the drool is flying as he begins a lengthy process of running about, shaking it back and forth and just plain chowing down on his new toy. When he pauses for breath Tigga is happy to let me pet and fuss over him as he continues chomping away and it's hard not to marvel at the amazing energy (high but not hyper) of this supposedly 'old' dog. Even his surrender notes show a certain flair for showmanship as we're told he enjoys Pina Coladas (!!!), prefers a vegan diet and just loves music and car rides. When asked what kind of home they thought he would be best suited to, Tigga's former owner said that he appreciates 'tough broads' and would be a 'divorcee's dream' or even, given his penchant for car travel, a 'trucker's delight' - wow, what a guy! If you think you're man or woman enough to handle this extra special guy then don't delay, Tigga is already neutered and ready to go home today!
