Taz is a Pugador (a Pug and Labrador mix) who was born on October 6, 2019, and joined his family that December.

As a puppy, Taz was a whirlwind of energy who loved tearing into things (especially paper towels and toilet paper!) and spinning in circles chasing his tail. His antics reminded his family of the old cartoon character the Tasmanian Devil, and the name Taz stuck!

When Taz first joined the family, he was small enough that his mom could bring him to work in her purse. Naturally, she had to show off the newest member of the family to all her friends and coworkers!

Taz began attending Doggy Daycare and Spa in May 2020 and has been a regular ever since! He gets excited as soon as his family pulls into the parking lot. His weekly daycare visits have helped make boarding a breeze for him since he already knows all the humans and dogs.

At daycare, Taz loves hanging out with his friends Rooney, Marlie, Olive, and Sissi. When he isn’t with them, you’ll often find him helping newer pups learn the ropes, chasing his tail (some things never change!), or standing between a team member’s legs. If Taz chooses to stand between yours, you know you’ve earned his trust! His family says he only does that when he feels comfortable with someone.

When he isn’t at Doggy Daycare and Spa, Taz enjoys neighborhood walks, spending time with his fur cousin Bo, and playing with his outdoor pull toy. When he gets excited, he grabs onto it and shakes his whole body, which is always entertaining to watch!

Fall is Taz’s favorite season because he loves chewing on fallen leaves and sticks. If Taz could talk, he would remind everyone that doggy treats are not just for special occasions. They should be given out regularly! We think that’s pretty solid advice!
