About Tucker

Tucker is a handsome older companion with the unique charm of a half-tail and striking white and cream fur. He prefers a low-key lifestyle and, with time and patience, will form a deep bond with someone he deems trustworthy. Tucker takes a little while to let people in, but once he does, he loosens up and reveals a playful side, sometimes even surprising you with a goofy play bow. While he's calm and easygoing, he's not interested in sharing space with other dogs and likes to keep his circle small. He’s at his best in a peaceful home where routines are predictable and things don’t get too rowdy. Tucker’s DNA was tested, so his mix of Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler and Siberian Husky isn’t a guess. Born in August, Tucker is a Leo—no wonder he has so much character.
