Pets: Meet the Ann Arbor.com Adoptable Pet of the Week: Tau

Tau, a 3-year-old female Jack Russell Terrier mix who is available for adoption at the Humane Society of Huron Valley

If you are looking for a small dog that prefers a quiet home and who bonds quickly to her people, you may want to meet Tau who is available for adoption at the Humane Society of Huron Valley.

This 3-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix does seem to bond to women faster and can be a bit untrusting of men when she first meets them. We aren’t sure of her background, because she came into the shelter as a stray.

The word Tau relates to the Greek alphabet, but in ancient times it was also used as the symbol for life or resurrection. Tau is full of life and, with the right home, we know she could flourish and bring much joy to her family. Tau is playful and will play fetch outside for hours! She also enjoys going for car rides and is a super one-on-one companion.

She would not be a good fit for small children because she much prefers a laidback, low stress home that is quiet.

Tau is residing in one of our caring foster homes right now. Her foster mom tells us that Tau likes to play with her other dog and is an affectionate little dog. It’s very easy to meet Tau in person by calling 734-662-5585 or emailing fosters@hshv.org.
