Tika is a sweet and gentle girl who may start off a little shy, and she is currently in the shelterâs Shy Dog Program to help her build confidence. Once she gets comfortable, her affectionate side shines. She enjoys sniffing and exploring her surroundings at her own pace, and sheâs happy to lean in for gentle petting under her chin once she trusts you.She walks well on leash, especially when away from kennel noise, and shows patience and curiosity when meeting new environments. Tika seems to be housetrained but may take a little time to readjust once in a home. She is a sweet, calm, and attentive companion who will thrive in a quieter, patient, understanding home where she can continue to build confidence and bond with her people.Tika is ready to share her gentle affection and loyalty with her forever family!
