Meet Tater

Location: Littlestown, PA. Tater is a male, approximately 12 weeks old and 18 pounds. Don't let his good looks fool you, he is a sassy little man.   Tater came in to the shelter as a stray. He is current on all of his age appropriate vaccines, due for final series at the end of the month. Tater is on preventives for flea/tick and hw.    If you have ACD experience then Tater will be easy for you. He is a quick learner and in general is very sweet. He gets along with all of the dogs that reside in his foster home.  He has respect for the grumpy elders and plays well with the other juvenile delinquents.     If you are new to ACDs they are the best dogs with proper training and exercise.  Tater is not for you if you are a couch potato or have young children.  Tater heels people and his puppy teeth are sharp.  Kids won't appreciate this.  He will need continued training on proper social skills with people and house training.    In the right home Tater will be an amazing addition to your family.     Tater does have some significant scaring over both hips.  He came into the shelter at 6-8 weeks old with them already healed over.     Located in Littlestown, PA Complete an Application: https://www.acdra.org/adoption-application
