Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, there! I’m Tucker. I was saved by my foster mom from being euthanized at the local high-kill shelter just because I was afraid of all the loud noises that came with being kenneled there. I am about 2 years old and roughly 19 pounds. My foster family thinks I must have some Chihuahua in me because I am a small guy with a very big personality. I love to play with all my doggie foster siblings and get along with their dogs of all sizes. I am crate-trained, potty-trained, and LOVE to go on walks and play with my ball. My favorite dessert is something called a puppiccino and I love to give hugs and cuddles with the people I am closest to. A fun fact about me is that I am bilingual. My foster parents speak to me in both Spanish and English and they tell me I am a very smart boy for picking up commands in both languages.
I do have a few other things you should know about me. For example, I don’t like when people make fast, unexpected movements around me, so I do prefer if you let me come up to you first. Small children can make me nervous, so I would do better in a home with older kids.
If I sound like a dog you could provide an amazing home to, then please don’t hesitate to follow the link to my adoption application and ask to set up a meet and greet with me! My foster family is amazing, but what I’d really love is for a home of my very own who will continue to spoil me like the little prince I am. See you soon! Love, Tucker.
