Tika has a soft heart and a gentle, thoughtful way of moving through the world. She may be shy at first, but this sweet girl is a graduate of the shelter’s Shy Dog Program and has been building confidence step by step. Once she warms up, Tika shines—leaning in for chin scratches, calmly exploring her surroundings, and showing her affectionate, steady nature.
- Enjoys quiet walks and sniffing adventures
- Walks well on leash in calm environments
- Friendly with new people, but appreciates a slow approach
- Seems housetrained and ready for a patient home
Tika would do best in a calm, understanding home where she can continue to grow at her own pace. She may prefer dogs her size or smaller, and a meet-and-greet is recommended. Older kids (12+) are likely the best fit for her gentle personality. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little time to bloom, Tika is ready to find her person. She’s ready to go home today so come and meet her!
