About Tatum
Prepare yourselves Villagers for the enigma wrapped in a cuddle, the short-legged wonder, the one and only... Tatum!
This handsome little man, all of about 4 months old, was saved from a rural country pound, and we're so glad he was.
🧬 The Great Tatum DNA Mystery: 🧬
He's technically listed as a Kelpie x Jack Russel but with his adorably short legs and a personality that screams "professional couch potato" rather than "herding champion" or "hyper terrier," we're pretty sure his DNA test results would just say "100% lovable mystery" He truly keeps us guessing.
🤫 Shy Guy Turned Love Bug: 💖
This sweet boy arrived a little shy, but he's blossomed into the most affectionate shadow you'll ever meet. He's just discovered the joys of his own voice (mostly for thanking you for dinner – yes, really), and is finding his confidence to explore the great outdoors and conquer mighty squeaky toys.
😻 Cat Fanatic Extraordinaire: 🐕
Now, let's talk about his #1 obsession: CATS! His bestie is a feline, and he truly believes cats are just dogs with better purrs. He gets on great with the resident pups too, but if you have a cat, Tatum considers that a bonus feature in his forever home application.
🏡 Tatum's Ideal Kingdom: 🏡
Tatum's ideal home is a nice calm and quiet place where he can be your absolute shadow, following you from room to room, or better yet, napping beside you on the couch (he could seriously win an Olympic medal for napping). He does have a slight preference for the ladies, finding them particularly comforting and excellent at dispensing ear scratches.
Seriously, this chilled-out little boy would sleep all day if he could, and he'll thank you for every meal like it's the greatest gift on earth. He's just waiting for his forever human(s) to cuddle up with.
Ready to meet Tatum? He's currently in foster care at Bellmere, north of Brisbane.
His Details: ✅ Vaccinated ✅ Microchipped ✅ Up-to-date with flea and worm treatments 💲 Adoption Fee: $625 (This includes his desexing at one of our partner vets when he's about six months old.)
