SORRY TUCKER WAS ADOPTED! HOME VISIT PENDING   APPROVED APPLICATION RECEIVED Meet Tucker — A Sweet Boy Looking for His Forever Home If you’ve found yourself drawn to Tucker, please take a moment to read his story carefully. Tucker is a very special boy who has already been through more than he should have, and now he’s hoping for someone who will give him the patience, guidance, love, and forever home he deserves. Tucker is not perfect — but he doesn’t need to be. He just needs someone willing to believe in him. Tucker came to us from a county shelter after being found as a stray. He was scared, confused, and unsure of what was happening. He didn’t understand why his world had suddenly changed. But once he felt safe, we began to see the sweet, affectionate, incredibly smart dog underneath that fear. Today, Tucker is learning that people can be trusted and that life can be filled with love, playtime, and a warm place to call home. About Tucker Tucker is an estimated 18-month-old Pomeranian mix who weighs approximately 16 pounds. He is absolutely adorable, beautiful, energetic, and — in so many ways — still a puppy at heart. SORRY TUCKER WAS ADOPTED!  HOME VISIT PENDING   APPROVED APPLICATION RECEIVED His foster dad says: “Tucker is very sweet and affectionate. But he is very much a puppy.” And that is perhaps the most important thing to understand about Tucker. He is smart, eager to learn, and full of energy, but he has not yet learned all the manners that will help him become the wonderful adult dog we know he can be. He loves to play, explore, and be part of everything happening around him. He also loves getting pets and affection and can truly light up a room. His foster family has already been working with him, and Tucker is doing very well with his crate training and housetraining. He is also good with dogs and cats, although he wants to play and still needs to learn how to interact appropriately. Tucker would benefit tremendously from continued training and from an adopter who understands that bringing home a rescue dog takes time, patience, consistency, and compassion. Because Tucker can be mouthy while teething and is still learning his manners, a home without young children is recommended. An experienced or confident dog owner who is willing to continue his training would be an especially wonderful match for him. Tucker Needs Someone Who Will Believe in Him  SORRY TUCKER WAS ADOPTED! HOME VISIT PENDING   APPROVED APPLICATION RECEIVED Tucker will need time to decompress when he enters his new home. We recommend following the 3-3-3 rule and giving him at least three weeks to begin feeling safe, comfortable, and truly settled. Please don’t expect Tucker to become your perfect dog overnight. Give him time. Give him structure. Give him patience. Give him love. And most importantly, give him a chance. His foster dad says it beautifully: Tucker may not be perfect right now, but with training and guidance, he has everything it takes to become an amazing adult dog. We believe Tucker is worth that chance. We hope his forever family will too.

Tucker doesn’t need someone looking for a perfect dog. He needs someone willing to help him become one. He has already been given a second chance. Now he just needs someone to give him the forever. Could that someone be you? If you think Tucker may be your perfect match, please apply at WWW.GADR.ORG and consider giving this handsome, loving boy the home he has been waiting for.

Story
PLEASE READ ALL NOTES BELOW THE ANIMAL PROFILE! Hi, I’m **Leia** 🐾 I’m a 1.5-year-old Husky x Shiba Inu mix — part athlete, part brainiac, all sass! I’m full of energy, super smart, and love a good challenge. I know some commands like sit, down, and stay, but let’s be honest… I only do what I want unless there are treats involved. I know my worth. 😉 I’m not the type to cuddle immediately. I need time, patience, and trust to build a strong bond. But once I let you in, I’ll show you my goofy, loyal side — and I’m *very* treat-motivated. I LOVE having a “job” or something to do, whether it’s training, games, or problem-solving puzzles. I need a very **active, adult-only home** — no kids, no cats, no other dogs. I’d do best as the only dog, ideally in a home with a **big fenced yard** or even a farm where I can safely run, explore, and have space to roam. I thrive when I have consistent guidance, advanced training, and mental stimulation. A little honesty: I have some challenges. I can bite when being picked up or when a lead is placed on me, and I’m sensitive around my face and neck. I need someone who will respect my boundaries on touch and work with me on feeling comfortable with a leash on/respecting your own boundaries. I’m also still learning leash manners, crate training, and not being possessive over toys and food. But I’m incredibly intelligent, and with a patient, dedicated human, I can absolutely thrive. From my foster: “Leia is incredibly smart and willing to learn — as long as food is involved! She needs someone she can trust and bond with. Once that happens, she’s unstoppable.” If you’re ready for a loyal, brilliant, and high-energy companion who will challenge you and love you on her terms, I’m your girl. I promise — life with me is never boring! 💛 Adoption FEE: $0 which includes her spay, microchip, and vaccines. LEIA DOES HAVE A HUMAN BITE RECORD.
