About Tux
Meet Tux, a spirited 9-week-old male Terrier mix looking for his forever home or a loving foster! Currently at a shelter in Puerto Rico, Tux is ready to embark on an adventure to the DC area with the right family. This little guy loves to play and will thrive with other dogs, cats, and children, especially when given patience and proper training. He’s at that delightful age where he’s eager to learn and socialize, so an adopter willing to invest time in puppy obedience classes would be ideal. Tux is still young and needs multiple potty breaks and playtime throughout the day, so potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be ready to meet his needs. He has had his age-appropriate vaccinations, but as an unaltered puppy, his adopter must ensure he is spayed or neutered by November 19, 2026. If you’re looking for an exciting addition to your family who is ready to explore new walks, play with toys, and get snuggles, Tux is waiting for you! Every puppy deserves a loving home, and Tux is eager to find his. Will you be the one? Click apply to start the adoption process.
