About Tuck

Tuck is an adorable soul with a big personality, typical of terriers. He has a passion for toys, carrying them everywhere — whether it's inside, outside, or tucked into piles in his crate. Tuck follows commands well and loves his walks, but he also enjoys a good chase, especially when squirrels are around, so a fenced yard is a must. He's social with other dogs and enjoys their company as long as they reciprocate his enthusiasm. While Tuck is a bit more independent than cuddly and takes time to warm up to strangers, he thrives with an owner who understands the value of patience, allowing him to build trust at his own pace. If you're ready to give this charming boy a loving home, he's waiting in Bristol, TN. Click apply to start the adoption process.
