About Tucker

Tucker is a delightful 7-month-old chihuahua/terrier mix with an infectious playful spirit. This little guy is full of energy, always ready to play with his humans or other dogs. When playtime winds down, you can find him cozying up for cuddle sessions on your lap. While he's generally good with other dogs, Tucker can be a bit possessive of his cuddle time. He might give a playful growl to remind others when it’s his turn. He would thrive in an active household—think hikes, camping trips, or fishing outings. Tucker is still working on his potty training but is making progress and sleeps soundly in bed with his foster family. He’s also comfortable in a kennel while they're out. If you’re looking for a vibrant puppy with a big heart, Tucker can’t wait to meet you! He has a neuter appointment scheduled for October 4th and is available for a foster-to-adopt arrangement until then.
