Tucker

Tucker (red harness/red sweater) is a 2 year, 8 month year old black-and-tan dachshund. He is healthy other than needing to lose a significant amount of weight. He is currently in our best "boot camp" foster.<br/><br/>Tucker is a very gently, sweet young guy- he loves to be close to his human and enjoys walks and hanging out on the couch watching tv. He arrived with his brother, Odie, but his brother developed a pack mentality, so Odie needs a strong owner who understands how to introduce him to new dogs and people. Tucker does well and is great with people and dogs but might be a tiny bit stand-offish to start. He would love a home with another friendly doxie and a human who will take him with them wherever they go. Above all, this is a very loving boy with a sensitive soul. He craves companionship from his person.<br/><br/>Tucker is good about pottying on command but sometimes has poop accidents in the house. Although we haven't tested it, we were told he knows how to ring a bell to go outside. After he acclimates, he is fairly good about going to the bathroom outside.<br/><br/>We are accepting applications for both Odie and Tucker together and independently. However, Odie's forever home will need to be structured and excellent with behavioral training. Tucker's adoptive home is more flexible, but he needs someone who is active and can demonstrate they are good about portion control with their pets.<br/><br/>To be considered, please apply on our website:<br/><br/>https://www.portlanddachshundrescue.org/adoptionform<br/><br/>Criteria:<br/>*Home with a fenced yard<br/>*Ability to socialize a dog in day care, puppy classes or by taking him to work regularly<br/>* Ideally would have other young small dogs to play with<br/>* No children but teens (13+) ok if home is structure and doesn't have a lot of young visitors
