Taylor Tot

My story

Come meet me during our events Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM - 4 PM at the Homeward Trails Manny Law Adoption Center, 11116 Fairfax Station Rd, Fairfax Station, VA. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: adoptioncenter@homewardtrails.org PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ LOCATION: Adoption Center ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Adoption Center ADOPTION FEE: $475. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. **Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training, and other discounts! ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 60-70 lbs KNOWN WITH DOGS: Taylor enjoyed having a medium to large playmate to keep him company in a previous foster home. He does not require another dog but does need exercise and stimulation to stay busy when he's not snoozing. KNOWN WITH CATS: Not the best with cats. Just wants to play and barks a lot :) KNOWN WITH KIDS: Taylor would prefer to be the the only kiddo in your home! KNOWN CUES: He knows to sit, stay, lay down, and is learning touch (come), leave it, drop it and heel. He walks great on the leash and is very food motivated which has made training pretty easy. KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: He is house-trained! He's learned to love his crate after some early anxiety, but Taylor is a smart dog and is crate-trained. KNOWN LIKES: Food, cuddling, people who move at his speed. KNOWN DISLIKES: Taylor can be nervous around new people and prefers friends who move slowly with him and recognize signs of discomfort. ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Adoption Center staff considered naming him "Bear," because once he knows and trusts you, Taylor is just like a big teddy bear. When he tells you he's ready, he LOVES being pet, but is also happy to show off his many skills and sometimes play with toys. Treats are a BIG DEAL to Taylor and are a great way to win your way into his heart and get him using his brain. He's very polite on-leash, loving the opportunity to sniff but not pulling too much (unless he's sees a squirrel - ooops!). Taylor would prefer to be in a kid-free home so he can bask in even more of your love and attention, and he promises to show off all his adorable canine antics.
