Taz was adopted from a no kill shelter at 8 mos. He's a Golden Retriever/German Shepherd mix. He's a wonderful family dog, is very sweet, loves people. A lot! Charmed the girls immediately when he saw them at the shelter. Oddly enough, he doesn't seem retriever fond of water and hasn't figured out the concept of retrieving - and given that retrievers sometimes will want to play fetch for hours on end, that may be a good thing. And even though people keep saying, "She's a pretty dog!" I'm a handsome boy dog.
