Meet Tika! This female Rottweiler mix is incredibly sweet and loves to lean on her human friends for pets and attention. Her medium size and calm demeanor make her a great snuggle buddy. She does well with other big dogs, and likes to romp around the yard with them all the time.
Tika very quickly wiggled her way into the hearts of all the Rocket Dog volunteers who have had the pleasure of spending time with her. She can be a little shy at first but once she warms up (takes all of about 30 seconds), she will immediately roll over for belly rubs. She does like playing with her dog and human friends but prefers snuggle sessions. She is great on walks, loves sniffing everything and rolling around in the grass to bring all the good smells home with her. She also is working on her basic commands, she knows “sit”, sometimes will show off her “shake” and “lay down” skills and can’t wait to learn more from her new family. She is house broken, though she may have some accidents as she learns the ropes in her new home.Tika should not be allowed to roam the house alone while her humans are gone, she tends to think household objects are for eating which can lead to some serious stomach issues. Crate training would be ideal. We think Tika is about 3 years old and about 50 lbs.
