Gentle Shepherd Mix Available for Adoption

Every week the Medfield Animal Shelter features a pet available for adoption. This week's pet is Tango, a Shepherd/Hound mix.

Tango lost his home due to a divorce.  In his previous home he lived with another dog, a cat and a young child. He weighs 50 lbs.and is 5 years old.  While he is a bit shy when he first meets someone, as soon as he gets to know you he is very friendly and loving.  He is desperate to have his own special people again, and is very bonded to the volunteers he sees frequently. He walks well on a leash and knows some command including Sit, Stay and Down. He came into the shelter with some skin problems which are clearing up nicely. His previous family said he doesn't like to be hugged, but likes all other petting and attention. He does let his favorite volunteers hug him. He is very good with kids as you can see from his video: http://youtu.be/BE15hjXWLp0
