Tyiana (fka Tiana)

This 9-month-old Labrador Retriever/Poodle mix is a playful and curious pup! Weighing 55 pounds now, Tiana loves playing with all people and dogs, making her a wonderful companion for an active family. Tiana is house-trained and quickly made herself at home. While she isn't crate-trained, her foster family reports that she's safe and content sleeping in a bedroom. She has previously lived with cats and children, but a proper introduction will be required to ensure safety for everyone. Tiana loves all different kinds of playtime--playing outside, chasing tennis balls, wrestling with her canine foster brother, and tug-of-war games. When she's playing alone, she's also happy to have a chew toy or a frozen kong. It's never a dull moment with how adorably clumsy she can be, sometimes tripping over her own legs, and somehow always pushing her tennis ball under couches and cabinets. She needs at least one daily walk and plenty of playtime with people or dogs. While she can be left alone, she needs some engagement or she may move your belongings around to keep herself entertained. She isn't destructive but does best in a safe space without access to items she might relocate. Her dream home will require a fenced yard where she can run and play, ideally with a canine sibling to wrestle and explore with. Tiana is young and eager to learn, and with the right structure, training, and love, she will become an incredible family dog!
