My story

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

Tucker is currently living in a foster home. This is what his foster has to say about him!
"Tucker is by far the most enjoyable dog I’ve fostered – I have even thought about adopting him, but I can’t. He is well-behaved, smart, affectionate, and I can trust him to not bother my belongings. At night I tell him, “Gotta go to bed”, and he runs to get in his crate – for which I give him a small treat. He is house-friendly, and always goes to the bathroom outdoors. He probably weights about 30 lb, so is a bit heavy for a lapdog, but he will sit next to me when I’m reading. I have walked him with neighborhood kids along, and it overwhelmed him. He would never harm anyone, but he appeared to be over-stimulated and seemed out of control when 5 kids walked with me. Their squeaky voices even overwhelm me."
If you think you may like to meet Tucker, please submit an adoption survey at chicoanimalshelter.org

More about this shelter

The Chico Animal Shelter is owned by the City of Chico and operated by the City of Chico Police Department. We take in all stray dogs found in the incorporated area of the City of Chico. People wishing to surrender their dogs are asked to call the shelter to make an appointment. The shelter does not impound healthy stray cats, including feral or trapped cats. Please see our website for more information about stray cats, and where to surrender owned cats. Although we are an open admission shelter, we follow the state policy that no adoptable animal should be euthanized. To that end, we work with rescue groups, humane societies and other organizations to adopt out animals.
