Tucker's Story

Meet Tucker: Your New Senior Sour Patch Kid (Heavy on the Sweet... but read the fine print!) <br/><br/>Tucker is a handsome senior mixed-breed terrier whose DNA results read like the cast list of a toy-dog sitcom: Chihuahua, Pekingese, Shih Tzu, and Yorkie - aka The Unforgettable Four. Just like his genetic cocktail, Tucker is wonderfully unique... and very aware of it.<br/><br/>He came to us as a local owner surrender under special circumstances, and at his age, Tucker has earned the right to have a few very reasonable house rules. (Don't worry - they're funny, not frightening.)<br/><br/>Here's what Tucker would like you to know, in his own distinguished senior-gentleman voice:<br/><br/> Rule #1: Dining Time Is Sacred<br/>If Tucker is eating, he is busy. Please do not schedule petting, commentary, or quality-control inspections during meals.<br/><br/> Rule #2: Peace & Quiet, Please<br/>Tucker is a connoisseur of calm. Loud homes need not apply. Soft voices, gentle routines, and peaceful vibes are his love language.<br/><br/> Rule #3: MY Toys<br/>Tucker's toys are his personal property and should be admired from a respectful distance. Sharing is optional and rarely encouraged.<br/><br/> Rule #4: Picking Him Up<br/>Tucker enjoys being held - when he asks. His request comes in the form of two polite paws on your leg.<br/>No paws? That means "thank you, but not today." <br/><br/>Now for the really good part...<br/><br/>Once Tucker feels safe and truly trusts you, he transforms into an incredibly affectionate little shadow. He loves giving kisses, happily hops onto your lap, and prefers to sleep right beside his person. Beneath those boundaries is a deeply loyal, loving dog who bonds hard and loves even harder.<br/><br/>Tucker is neutered, up to date on shots, Senior-to-Senior eligible, and needs nothing but understanding, patience, and love. He would thrive with someone who appreciates routine, respects boundaries, and has a great sense of humor.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you honest, and reward your kindness with devotion, cuddles, and bedtime snuggles (just not during dinner), Tucker may be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Come meet him - he's ready to find his quiet, loving forever home with someone who celebrates his quirks as much as we do.
