Here's what the humans have to say about me:
AVAILABLE IN CHARLESTOWN, INDIANA
Are you looking for a cover model for "Aussie GQ" magazine? Meet Tucker! This handsome boy is 1.5 years old and weighs about 60 lb. His tail is docked and he is neutered.
As is common with Aussies, Tucker is wary of strangers. You know you're "in" when he shows you his belly! He is housebroken & does not jump the fence to roam the neighborhood, even though he could easily do so.
Tucker is a Velcro dog and wants to be with you no matter what you're doing. He learns quickly & would do well given a job. He gets along well with other dogs & familiar kids, but he definitely wants to be Alpha. He resides with 2 cats and will chase them if they run. He does not show aggression towards the cats but they are scared of him. Since he does chase them, I would recommend a home without cats.
Tucker will remain in his crate at night but if you leave him alone during the day he finds ways to escape and get into mischief. He could easily escape the crate at night as well, but he would rather obey while you're watching.
Tucker is awesome! He is so sweet, & very smart. If you're the right fit, Tucker will make a great addition to your life!
If you think he is a good match for you, please fill out our adoption application:
