About Tyson’s Breed:
Our best guess is that Tyson is American Pitbull Terrier mixed breed. The Pitbull Terrier mix is a loyal and affectionate companion, often known for its playful energy and strong bond with people. These dogs are intelligent, eager to please, and thrive in homes where they receive consistent training, exercise, and affection. While they can be energetic and powerful, Pitbull mixes are also gentle and loving, making them wonderful family pets when raised in a positive, structured environment. Their adaptability and devotion mean they often excel as both active playmates and cuddly household companions.
Tyson is the whole package: loving, playful, and ready to be your best friend. He’s working on his house training, isn’t crate trained yet, but he’s not destructive and is making great progress. Tyson does have some separation anxiety, so he’d thrive with a family or person who’s home often or who loves to bring their pup along for adventures (because he’s also a rockstar in the car)!
Tyson’s Totally Tubular Highlights:
• Kid- and people-loving, a wonderful family dog
• Dog- and cat-friendly, enjoys furry companions of all kinds
• Medium-high energy, loves walks, backyard play, and toys
• Great on leash, enjoys daily strolls and would be a fun hiking buddy
• Car rider pro, settles in nicely for trips
• Playful yet easygoing, with that irresistible puppy energy

• Would love a fenced yard, perfect for safe zoomies and playtime
Tyson is looking for a forever home where he can be included, loved, and given plenty of exercise and affection. With his sweet nature and playful spirit, Tyson is ready to bring joy, cuddles, and adventure to the lucky family who welcomes him home!
