About Tusk

Tusk is a wonderful 6-year-old boy who was sadly surrendered to the shelter through no fault of his own. He’s understandably nervous in the noisy shelter but yearns for a second chance in a loving home. This sweet dog reliably sits on command, walks well on a leash, and delights in showering you with kisses. Tusk is house trained, friendly with other dogs, and gets along beautifully with children. He’s neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and will be microchipped upon adoption. Come meet this charming gentleman in kennel 827—his ID is 23432. Don't miss the chance to bring Tusk into your life. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
