Story
Meet Tucker: your biggest fan in a 14-pound package. 🩵🐾
Tucker is an almost 9-year-old Chihuahua with the sweetest heart and one very important life goal: to spend as much time as possible with his favorite human.
Looking for a bathroom buddy? Tucker volunteers. Need someone to supervise laundry? He's on it. Running errands? He'd happily tag along. He doesn't have separation anxiety—he simply thinks life is more fun when you're together.
This handsome little guy has been wonderful with adults, children, cats, and dogs. Because he's a smaller, sensitive fellow, he'd probably appreciate a home with kids ages 5+ who understand that little dogs deserve gentle handling and predictable routines.
Tucker is house trained (as much as any respectable little male Chihuahua can claim!), walks nicely on a leash, and is impressively quiet. While he's perfectly polite with the resident dogs in his foster home, he's made it clear that people are really his favorite species. If given the choice between hanging out with another dog or soaking up your attention, Tucker is choosing you every single time.
His favorite place in the house? Perched on the back of the couch like a tiny king, quietly watching his favorite person with what can only be described as complete admiration. It's equal parts adorable and heart-melting.
Tucker does have a heart murmur that's being successfully managed with medication twice a day, and he'll need ongoing monitoring. It doesn't stop him from enjoying life or being the loving, loyal companion he was born to be.
If you've been searching for a calm, affectionate little sidekick who will happily accompany you through the ordinary moments that make up everyday life, Tucker is ready to become your most devoted fan. All he asks in return is a little love, a comfy spot to perch, and the privilege of being wherever you are. 💙🐾

Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.
