Story
Tucker is a Shichon mix who just turned 14 years old on Dec 28, 2025. He is between 15-20lbs. We have a 5-year-old dog and a 1-year-old dog, and we think Tucker would be happier in a slower home without other pets or kids, unless they are older, as well. He is an anxious dog who prefers quiet time. He doesn't like to be picked up but wants to be near someone. We have not kept up with his shots, but he has been healthy. He still has some play in him when the other dogs aren't around which is another reason we think he may be happier without other pets around. We don't want money for him. We want him to find a loving and slower home, so he has less stress. Please reach out if you would like to meet him. We don't have a timeline but would like his surroundings to slow down sooner than later. Thank you for your consideration. Robin
