Tatum

My story

Name: Tatum Estimated Birthday: 11/1/2022 Breed: Pitbull/Hound Mix Size: 65 lbs House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Good with Kids: Yes – best with older kids due to his enthusiasm Good with Dogs: Yes, but prefers slow introductions Meet Tatum—resident goofball, professional snuggler, and longtime rescue favorite who’s been patiently waiting far too long for his big moment. If this were a movie, he’d be the underdog you can’t help but root for… and trust us, he’s ready for his happy ending. Tatum is the best of both worlds: part zoomies, part couch potato. One minute he’s tossing toys in the air and doing his signature silly spins, and the next he’s curled up beside you, fully committed to a Netflix (or “dog TV”) marathon. He’s got that lovable, slightly goofy charm that makes every day a little brighter—and a lot more fun. This smart boy has his basics down like a champ. He’s fully house trained, loves his crate (his cozy “room”), and already knows commands like “sit” and “stay”—especially when snacks or outdoor adventures are involved. He’s eager to please and enjoys learning, which makes him a great candidate for continued training or even fun activities like agility or nose work. Tatum adores people and does great with older kids who can match his enthusiasm. He can get a little bouncy when he’s excited (he just really loves life), so a home without tiny kiddos would suit him best. With other dogs, he’s more of a “let’s take it slow and be polite” kind of guy—he can absolutely make friends, he just appreciates thoughtful introductions. Tatum is more than ready to foster life for a home of his own. Busy, crowded environments can be a bit overwhelming for him, so he’d thrive in a calmer setting where he can truly relax and be himself. Here’s the thing about Tatum: he’s not just looking for a home—he’s waiting for his person. The one who sees how special he is, goofy quirks and all. And when he finds you? You’ll get a loyal, loving, endlessly entertaining best friend who’s been saving up years of love just for you. If you believe in second chances, big hearts, and dogs who make life more fun… Tatum is ready to meet you. Tatum’s Favorite Things: - Ladies!
