Meet Tucker! Tucker is a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever Hound mix weighing 21 pounds, and he’s as sweet as he is shy. Right now he’s still learning that people can be trusted, so he won’t run up to you just yet. But with time, patience, and the right environment, this little guy is going to blossom. What really helps Tucker shine is being around other dogs. Playful pups bring out his confidence and curiosity, and having a doggy friend in the home will be the key to helping him grow. He’s starting to enjoy toys, and he’s making great progress on the leash, learning the world step by step. Tucker may be shy now, but he’s still just a puppy with so much potential. With another dog by his side and a family who will give him love and patience, he’s sure to grow into a happy, loyal, and playful companion. Tucker is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application. All adoption applications must be completed on www.hfgdr.org** HFG Dog Rescue is a 100 percent foster-based rescue located in Berkeley Heights, NJ with a sister location, The Almost Home Wellness Center, in Aiken, SC. All of our dogs are rescued from kill shelters in SC + GA and once ready for adoption live in loving local NJ foster homes until they find forever families of their own. Our fosters begin basic training, housebreaking, and leash-walking skills to help pair you with the perfect pup for life! In order to apply for adoption and set up an individual meet and greet with one of our dogs, please visit us at www.hfgdr.org. Find us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/HomeForGoodDogRescue.
