When Tazo suffered a traumatic back injury that left him paralyzed in his hind legs, his owners weren’t able to treat him, so they surrendered him to Animal Haven. The first thing the shelter noticed was his amazingly resilient personality and unwillingness to give up on a happy life.

Every dog should have a forever home, but especially pooches like Tazo. He’s a fighter, but also a lover, and has endless amounts of happiness to spread. Without a forever home, that would have all gone to waste!
