Tapatía

Description

(Pronounced Tah-pah-TEE-ah, or just Tía for short!) Named after the famous Tapatío hot sauce for her beautiful red brindle coat, Tapatía is a gentle, loving girl who has overcome a rough past and is ready to put it all behind her. Tía was found wandering a busy highway many miles from town by a  family on vacation on a brutally hot summer afternoon. They couldn’t leave her. They took her back to their cabin, spoiling her with treats, toys, and endless cuddles while searching for help. When a local rescuer finally stepped up, they said a tearful goodbye. In just a few short days, Tía had completely stolen their hearts. The vet estimates Tía is about 6-7 years old, though her worn teeth make it hard to tell. Even all she's been through, you would never know it from her mellow nature. She is relaxed, social, and does great with the male dogs and cats she shares space with. Tía is busy making up for lost time, finding joy in the simplest things she never knew before, such as regular meals, flea and tick relief, playing with her new friends, wading in the baby pool on hot days, and getting all the human attention she can. She loves being near people, bonds quickly, and despite everything she’s been through, she’s still completely ready to trust and love.  After a lifetime of caring for puppies, Tía is more than ready for someone to finally take care of her!  This devoted mama deserves to be treated like the queen she is, in a home where she’s doted on, cuddled, well fed, and spoiled for the rest of her days. Note: Tía is still being fully vetted, and we’ll update her medical details as we learn more.
