Tucker is a three-year-old male Shih Tzu who weighs about 20 lbs. Independent by nature, he's sweet and prefers doing his own thing but will tolerate other dogs. Tucker would be perfectly content as an only dog in the home. He originally came from the Memphis animal shelter and spent some time adopted out, but returned due to his adopter's illness. Tucker has dealt with allergies and skin problems since arriving—he’s had allergy tests, treatments, and sometimes receives cytopoint shots for itching. Regular medicated baths help his skin, and he requires prescription drops for dry eye. Anyone interested in adopting Tucker should be comfortable managing his ongoing healthcare needs. His adoption fee is waived for an adopter with a solid vet reference who understands and will meet his medical requirements. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
