Tyson is a big, lovable goofball looking for an active home that can keep up with his energy! This large breed boy loves nothing more than romping around with other big dogs or heading out for long walks to burn off some steam.
While Tyson is full of enthusiasm and fun, he's still working on some basic manners-he can get a little jumpy and mouthy when excited. He'll need an adopter committed to continuing his training to help him be the best boy he can be.
If you're looking for an adventure buddy with a playful spirit and a heart full of love, Tyson might just be your perfect match!
