Taz, this week’s Northern Chautauqua Canine Rescue Dog of the Week, is a compact, dynamic, and energetic dog who weighs about 40 pounds and sports a sleek tri-color coat. Taz is sharp as a tack and quick to learn, loves to run and has the energy to keep up mile after mile. Believed to be primarily Australian Shepherd, and still a young pup at around 1 year old, Taz would be well suited for an active person who can keep his mind and body busy and continue his training. Read more about him and apply to adopt online at www.caninerescue.org. Visit the resident dogs Monday through Saturday from 1 to 3 p.m., no appointment needed, at 7540 N Gale St., Westfield.
