About Tux

Tux is a big, playful four-year-old male, weighing in at 76 pounds. His mystery mix likely includes Border Collie and Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and he stands out with his charming black and cream coat. Tux’s main mission in life is companionship; he loves being adored as much as he adores those around him. This guy has a particular fondness for balls—any type will do. Throw it, and he’ll chase it down without fail. Whether it’s a game in a securely fenced yard or a hike in nature, Tux is all about adventure and excitement. He’ll happily tag along for car rides and coffee runs, expecting his beloved pup cup at Starbucks. He’s active but not overly hyper, making him the perfect blend of fun and calm. While Tux can be great with kids, ideally, they should be over ten. He can only be placed in homes with no dogs, as his selection criteria for canine friends are unpredictable. Cats are definitely off the table; Tux simply won’t tolerate them. A secure yard, lots of balls, and a loving owner are essential for Tux. He is ready to shower you with loyalty and affection, believing you hung the moon in the sky. If Tux sounds like your dream companion, apply online to begin the adoption process.
