My story

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

Meet Tucker, the teeny-tiny Yorkshire Terrier mix! Weighing less than 8 pounds, this 7-year-old cuddlebug is the ultimate lap dog. Tucker adores being held and will happily jump on your leg to ask for snuggles.

Tucker was once scared and shaking in a shelter, but he’s blossomed in foster care. He’s a sweet, cuddly boy who loves his humans and is great with smaller dogs under 20 pounds. Big dogs, however, are too overwhelming for him. Tucker also thrives in quieter environments with kids over 12 who understand his small size and gentle nature.

While Tucker is working on house and crate training, he’s making excellent progress! He’s decent on a leash and enjoys walks with his family. As a typical yappy Yorkie, Tucker will do best in a standalone home (no apartments or condos, please). He is a barky dog. He will need a family who understands he likes to express himself.

If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who’s happiest in your lap, Tucker might be the perfect fit. Apply to adopt him today at bcaaofnj.org.

Submitting an application is always our first step - it's free to apply! bcaaofnj.org

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts with the applicant filling out an adoption application for the pet they are interested in. When they have completed and submitted the application, the screening process is started, which consists of a vet check, phone interview and home visit. Once all the steps are completed, we determine, by our findings, if they are approved, and if so, then they are allowed to adopt from our organization. The final step is they must complete the adoption contract, along with the donation for the animal, which goes into our medical fund to defray their medical costs. All of our animals are spayed and neutered, up to date on all their shots, including rabies, they are parasite free and on heartworm preventative.
