Story
Tucker is a cattle dog mix with a soft soul and an even softer spot for cuddles. His expressive eyes and sweet demeanor make it easy to fall in love, but his gentle, affectionate nature truly sets him apart. Tucker thrives on close bonds and adores nothing more than curling up in your lap—he even loves being held like a baby. He’s a true cuddlebug! He is looking for a home without other pets or children. He’ll do best with experienced adopters who can give him the attention and one-on-one companionship he craves. If you're searching for a devoted companion who just wants to be by your side (or in your arms), Tucker may be the perfect match. Tucker is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella vaccines!
