Here's what the humans have to say about me:

**ALL ABOUT TUCKER**
Info shared from shelter :

A shelter favorite .
He's 2-3 years old, 69 lbs., gets along with other dogs and with cats. I specifically had them further test him with cats, and he is not aggressive. One of the cats whacked him, and he backed up and was then afraid to go near it.

He has been exposed to kids/ teens and is very good. He is high energy and d/t lack of training does not understand boundaries very well to be respectful of space and how to play . He thinks that grabbing, mouthing is a game and can knock someone down.. .so we prefer homes with teens.

He is a bit of a puller on leash.. and seems to take direction better from a male than female- perhaps d/t a stronger presence/ energy .
Excited to meet people/ dogs... anyone. He has no issues in meeting strangers.
He would do best with access to immediate training classes for bonding and training.
He needs a active family who can meet his needs for play, training and solid structure as he can have a crazy bursts of craziness in what we call the witching hour..lol

Tucker has huge potential...

*** HOW IT WORKS - ADOPTION INFORMATION ****
Please read ** ALL** the information provided below on the process to
save time and facilitate the process in a smooth manner.

The adoption fee does NOT cover the cost of vetting or supplies for these animals - If you cannot afford the adoption fee
(that is a fraction of actual REDUCED VETTING expenses incurred) then you should reconsider adopting.
These animals deserve forever homes, good food, regular vet care, and emergency care as needed.
Pets should never be euthanized by their owners simply based on financial consideration when something goes wrong.
