My story

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

Tux is ready to find his people! <3

Tux is as handsome as his name suggests, and he’s ready to meet the family who will adore him forever. This sweet guy is friendly with dogs, cats, and kids, and he’s the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. His estimated birthday is 10/21/2024.

Tux loves both men and women, though he may take a moment to warm up in busy or new environments. Once he feels settled, he transforms into a total cuddlebug who truly believes he’s a lap dog. He’ll happily lean in for pets any chance he gets!

One of his cutest quirks? When Tux gets excited and starts running, he does an adorable little hop that never fails to make his foster family smile. He also has a beloved oversized moose toy that he proudly carries around and snuggles with like it’s his best friend.

Tux has a naturally energetic spirit and would thrive with an active family who enjoys walks, playtime, and adventure. He’s a smart boy who’s already learned a lot, and he’ll benefit from someone who enjoys continuing positive training with him—he loves having a job to do and shines when given guidance.

Tux also takes his role as “honorary neighborhood watch member” very seriously. He’ll let you know when someone’s at the door, just to keep the household in the loop.

If you’re looking for a fun, loving, loyal companion with personality to spare, Tux might just be your perfect match!
