Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Tucker is a five-year-old blue heeler mix. I adopted him from the Cedar Rapids IA Humane Society. He was surrendered over twice before (first his litter was homeless and then his previous family gave him back after a natural disaster). Tucker is super loving, his humans are his best friends, he loves to cuddle up close and play with his toys. He needs lots of time to play but also loves to be lazy and nap on all the furniture. Tuck is potty trained but will pee a little when he is excited or nervous. He is very friendly to all adults but has shown reactivity towards children who are walking by (he has met one kid in my care, and it went well). I can no longer care for Tucker after dealing with his reactivity, I have decided it is no longer a safe choice for me to have him. He is very aggressive towards animals and has attacked a couple dogs on walks, he needs an owner who is experienced with reactive dogs and has the time to take care of him. He is very loved and makes a great friend.
