About Tucker

Tucker is a happy, fun-loving boxer mix with a big spirit and a contagious smile. Although a bit reserved at first, he settles in quickly and brings energy and adventure wherever he goes. He’s crate trained, house broken, and understands basic commands. Car rides are no problem for him either. Tucker’s gentle nature shines around kids, and he’s careful not to jump up. He thrives in the company of other dogs—play, chase, and wrestling matches are some of his favorite activities. Tucker gets along with cats, though he sometimes gets carried away wanting to chase, so cat-savvy homes are best. Chickens and ducks, however, aren’t a fit for him unless you have a very secure coop. Belly rubs, back scratches, snuggles, and treats make his day. He’s just a genuinely sweet dog searching for his next best friend. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
