Tonks (Truffles)

Meet Tonks (Truffles)! <br/><br/>A spirited six-and-a-half-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog/Boston Terrier/Pitbull mix currently in Cutler, OH, whose essence is a bundle of energy, affection, and tail-wagging joy wrapped in a white coat speckled with black patches and spots.<br/><br/>Tonks is a 55-pound snuggle enthusiast who lives for human connection, her personal motto might as well be, “I wanna be where my people are!” From the moment you wake up to her happy, wiggly greetings to the quiet, cozy nights when she curls up beside you on the couch, she is all about being your loyal love bug. While she thrives on play and physical activity, like romping around outside with her humans or solving a puzzle to uncover hidden treats, Tonks also treasures her chill time, especially on a cool floor or a soft dog bed after a good romp or brain game.<br/><br/>Fully house-trained and crate-trained, Tonks knows a handful of commands including sit, down, stay, touch, kennel, and “park it” (her cue to settle in for bedtime). She’s a quick learner and responds especially well to positive reinforcement in a calm, structured environment. Tonks takes daily Fluoxetine to help with anxiety and benefits greatly from a consistent routine and experienced dog guardians who understand her energy and needs.<br/><br/>Because she loves so fiercely, Tonks thrives in a setting where she can be the star of the show, meaning she needs to be the only pet in the home. In her current foster environment, which includes two large dogs and three cats, she’s had ongoing conflicts. Particularly with a resident German Shepherd and due to her strong prey drive toward cats, making it clear she’s not suited to multi-pet households. She can be reactive to certain triggers like mail trucks, some unfamiliar dogs, and unannounced visitors, so she’ll do best in a peaceful home that doesn’t see too much hustle and bustle. While she's selective around other dogs and not compatible with cats, she absolutely shines when she's the center of a human’s world.<br/><br/>Whether she’s working on a Kong puzzle, chewing a favorite bone, or melting into your lap for some well-earned cuddles, Tonks is ready to give her next family endless affection, devotion, and plenty of joyful moments!<br/><br/>Contact: mapawsmepetrescue@gmail.com<br/><br/><br/>Interested in meeting Tonks (Truffles)? <br/><br/>All Ma, Paws & Me Pet Rescue dogs are in homes with foster families; we do not have a shelter where dogs are available for daily viewing.<br/><br/>Our process is as follows:<br/>1.
