About Tucker

Tucker is an 11-month-old Labrador Retriever/Hound mix who weighs in as a lean small-sized companion with a short, striking red and white coat. He’s still getting his bearings around people, preferring to keep his distance until he feels safe, but with the right patience he starts to enjoy cuddling and relaxing. Tucker’s confidence grows around other dogs—playful pups really help him come out of his shell, so a home with at least one friendly dog will be important for his comfort and growth. He’s also good with cats, and would do best with older children who can respect his space. Tucker has puppy energy when he’s ready, enjoys discovering toys, and is starting to get the hang of the leash. With gentle structure and calm support, he’s bound to blossom into a loyal, happy, and spirited companion. Tucker is neutered, microchipped, and his vaccinations are current, so he’s ready for his next chapter in Aiken, SC. Fun fact: as a Gemini, he might surprise you with his playful side once he’s settled. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
