My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tucker is a little cockapoo mix who's about 1-1/2 years old and weighs 13 lbs. He was confiscated from a hoarder, along with several other dogs. Tucker was not well socialized, and his foster family has been working with him on both housetraining and confidence.

Tucker is improving on leash walking, although he will sometimes just sit down and not want to move forward. But he's treat-motivated and will run ahead to get a treat tossed in front of him. When he encounters another dog on a leash, or a person walking by, sometimes he begins to shake and needs reassurance.

When people visit, he'll bark initially (not in a threatening way) but with his tail wagging. After a few minutes of reassurance, he relaxes. Tucker loves to play fetch in the house and sometimes outside if the environment is quiet. He's super affectionate and loves to cuddle, and as his confidence builds, he's learning to be independent. Tucker would be best in a house with a yard and another socialized dog who can teach him that he no longer has to be afraid, and to help him continue to blossom.

If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting Tucker, the first step is to submit an adoption application. Please go to our website www.k9bestfriendsforever.com and click on "Adopt" which will take you to our online application form.

More about this rescue

Our goal is to rescue at-risk dogs and place them in stable, loving, and permanent homes.

Through no fault of their own, these dogs find themselves in shelters or with guardians who can no longer care for them. We believe each dog is special and deserves to be cherished and protected. We are dedicated to helping find these loyal companions a permanent home and a second chance at life.
