Tiger Pit Bull Terrier Mix Palatine, IL

Move over George Clooney – there is a new distinguished gentleman in town!! My name is Tiger, and I’m a very handsome Pittie mix weighing in at 60 pounds. Don’t let my silver face fool you – my paperwork says I’m about 7 years old, but I’m a VERY playful and spry guy! I was orphaned when my owner suddenly passed away. 
 
I am fully housebroken, only chew on my toys, and don’t counter surf or resource guard. My basic obedience skills are top notch! I know how to sit, lay down, stay, settle, go to place… and I’m excited to learn more. I’m food motivated and super eager to please. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE people – I’m a total Velcro dog. I just want to be snuggled up next to you every chance I get. I get anxious when my people leave so am hoping for humans who are home a lot.
 
I really like to chase balls, so if you know how to throw them, we’d make a great match! I would do well with a family that has a privacy fence or likes to go for walks – I’m a master escape artist, and I have been known to climb a chain link fence. I am super-duper interested in other dogs, but I don’t have much experience playing with them… so sometimes I can be a little awkward and nervous around them. I don’t have a mean bone in my body, so I would be okay with another dog in the home as long as they’re patient and easygoing - but I would probably thrive as the only dog. I’m working on my leash manners… sometimes I get a little TOO excited to be out in the world sniffing all the sniffs and seeing all of the humans and animals!! I haven’t been around small children or cats – so I’m not sure if I’d like to live with them or not. 
 
I am one of the happiest, sweetest, gentlest souls you will ever meet. When you come home I’ll greet you with full body wiggles, excited sneezes, big smiles, and tail that wags dangerously hard. I am full of nothing but love, and I am excited for my second chance.
