Tarantino is a sensitive little guy who’s trying so hard to be brave in a big world full of new things. In playgroup, he starts off shy with other dogs, but warms up into adorable play bows. Outside the shelter, he’s an affectionate cuddle bug who loves belly rubs, soft toys, head scratches, and sticking close to his favorite people. With reassurance and kindness from his friends, his playful, goofy side shines through. Tarantino loves walks, sniffy adventures, running around, and then curling up nearby for a cozy nap. He’s a sweet, tender-hearted boy looking for a gentle home that will help him keep building confidence.
