My story

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

Tucker is a sweet, house-trained dog looking for a calm home. He came from long-term shelter life and does best without small children or other pets, though he's improved greatly; he mostly ignores cats and prefers to move away from high-energy dogs or kids. Tucker has done well meeting calm dogs and even has a few friends, but may react if cornered and sometimes barks at scooters/skateboards.

Tucker loves leash walks (sniffing everything!), treats, rope toys, belly rubs, and butt scritches. He's gentle in the home, stays off counters, and leaves household items alone.

Tucker currently lives with my parents, and we're rehoming due to their upcoming move to assisted living related to progressing Parkinson's and concerns for tripping. I cannot safely take him back with two young children in a literal tiny home.

Health-wise, he's vaccinated, on preventatives, with past Ehrlichia (treated years ago, no flare-ups). He has a sensitive stomach and does well on Purina ONE Digestive Health.
