About Titan
Meet Titan 🐾
If you're looking for a dog who will keep you laughing every single day, Titan might just be your perfect match.
Titan is the most lovable, clumsy, goofy cuddle bug you'll ever meet. Life with Titan is full of laughs thanks to his quirky personality. He has a hilarious habit of carrying random household items around in his mouth (don't worry—he's rarely destructive... unless you're a clothes peg!). Although he can be a little jumpy and easily startled, with a bit of reassurance he's always willing to give new things a go.
Titan loves his people with his whole heart. Once he trusts you, he'll shower you with affection and happily become your shadow, insisting on sitting as close to you as physically possible. Whether you're on the couch, working from home, or relaxing in the backyard, Titan simply wants to be wherever you are.
Titan's Ideal Home
Titan is looking for a family where he can truly be part of everyday life. He is still working through some separation anxiety, so he'd be happiest in a home where someone is around more often than not, particularly if he'll be the only dog.
He would thrive with a calm, patient older dog who can help guide him, or even a confident, playful cat to keep him company. Titan absolutely adores his foster sister dog and foster brother cat, and he's happiest when surrounded by his furry friends.
A secure backyard is a must for this big, lovable boy—his zoomies are something to behold!
Exercise & Training
Titan enjoys a daily 20–30 minute walk and is continuing to learn how to focus on his handler rather than everything happening around him. Due to a difficult and painful start in life, his socialisation is a little behind where it should be, so he'll need a family committed to continuing his training using patience and positive reinforcement.
He's not the quickest learner, but what he lacks in speed he more than makes up for in love and loyalty.
Children
Titan would be best suited to a home with older children who can understand and respect his boundaries. He can be sensitive about having his face and ears touched due to a previous medical condition.
Medical Information
When Titan first came into care, he was diagnosed with **cranial mandibular osteopathy (CMO)**, a condition sometimes referred to as "lion jaw." CMO is a developmental condition seen in young dogs that causes abnormal bone growth around the jaw and skull, making chewing and opening the mouth painful while the condition is active.
The good news is that CMO is generally self-limiting, meaning it stops progressing once a dog finishes growing. Titan has now been thoroughly assessed by his veterinarian and has been given the all-clear. He is living a happy, normal life and no ongoing treatment is currently required.
Like many dogs with previous orthopaedic conditions, he may occasionally become a little sore after strenuous activity and may benefit from simple pain relief if recommended by your veterinarian, but he is otherwise ready to enjoy life with his forever family.
Could Titan Be Your Perfect Match?
If you're looking for a loyal companion who will make you smile every day, keep your lap warm, and love you with absolutely everything he has, Titan is ready to meet you.
He may need a little extra patience and guidance, but the reward is a lifetime of unconditional love from one very special boy.

Adoption details
We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form.
For Cats: https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870
For Dogs: https://form.jotform.co/80677377750872
Please use these links rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
