MEDFORD, MA—Tyson is a 2.5 male chow, rottweiler, and shepherd mix looking for a home.

Tyson was found chained to the tire of a police cruiser, and was taken care of by an animal control officer. Money was able to be raised for his training, and Tyson is now a very well-behaved boy after years of abuse.

My Adoption Process, via Kitty Connection

1…If you are interested in meeting me, your first meet is a stop by as if you are there to visit my foster mom. This is your opportunity to talk with my foster mom and observe how I interact in my foster home environment. If a Kitty Connection volunteer is available, he/she will come by so that you can witness my natural interactions with him/her. Going for a walk is an option if you wish.

2…If you think I may be a good fit for you, fill out a “Dog Application” and a second meet will be set up. Here, you can take me for a walk and we can begin our training using food as my reward. (I am VERY food motivated!) You will observe how my foster mom gets me out of my crate and ready for a walk, as well as the return and how she puts me back into my crate.

3…If you are serious about me and feel that I am definitely the dog for you, another meet and walk will be scheduled at my foster home. Next, I will be brought to your home to meet you in your environment and my possible new home. At this point, a nonrefundable deposit must be submitted to proceed with the adoption process. You will come and take me out of my crate for a walk and return me to my crate. A meeting with my professional dog trainer will be arranged and preparations for an overnight/weekend stay will be arranged. Then, your decision MUST be made and a date set for my big move into your home!

4…You will be on our way to have an incredible, lovable and faithful companion for the rest of our lives!
