Tucker's owners passed away within a few days of each other. They were an elderly couple, and they didn’t get their dogs spayed or neutered. As a result, there were 19 dogs that ended up being removed from the property. Tucker is a 2 year old Dachshund/Aussie mix, that weighs 33 pounds.

Thank you for your interest in adopting from Pawportunities Animal Welfare! To begin the adoption process, we encourage you to complete an adoption application at the link below. Once submitted, our team will review your application and schedule a meet-and-greet with the pet. Adoption Application: https://pawportunities.com/adoption-application/ Please note that we often receive multiple applications for the same pet. Applications are processed in the order they are received. If the pet you’re interested in has already been adopted, we would be happy to suggest another from the same litter (if applicable) or a similar pet in our care. With over 120 animals currently seeking loving homes—and new arrivals daily—we are confident we can help you find the perfect match! Since our goal is to find loving homes as quickly as possible, we are unable to hold animals. Adoptions are completed on a first-come, first-served basis, and there are only two ways to secure a pet: 1. Signing an adoption contract 2. Placing a non-refundable hold deposit Please understand that your specific pet could be adopted prior to your being able to meet them. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us via text at 816-463-9796. We also invite you to follow us on Facebook for updates on available pets, rescue stories, and upcoming events: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pawportunities Consider Fostering! Fostering is a rewarding way to help animals in need while making a direct impact on their journey to finding forever homes.
