Tucker's Story
**Tucker is food/treat motivated and does better with other dogs than his sister Sadie. He seems to be more submissive. He should do fine with other calm dogs.<br/>We were asked to take Tucker and his sister, Sadie, in after their owner went into hospice care. Both dogs were well cared for by their owner until she could no longer do so because of her declining health. They are 8 (almost 9) year old labradoodle siblings whose mom had to go into hospice care. We have only had them a short time so we are still learning about them and they are still figuring life out here, as they have spent their whole lives (from puppyhood) in their former home. They are usually good with most other dogs but Sadie, the female, can get jealous of attention to other dogs and tends to be a bit more dominant than her brother, who is more timid. They both seem to be dog selective. Both dogs are head shy and will shy away from touching their heads. You can pet them but initially, they seem to be wary of hands near their heads. Tucker has no health issues, other than some old man cysts that old dogs can get. Vet stated they felt like benign cysts and of the type older dogs can develop. She was not concerned with them. Overall, both of these dogs are in good health and their owner maintained their vet care regularly. <br/>They are ready to find quiet, retirement type homes where they can be the only dog(s). That is the lifestyle that they are used to and the lifestyle that would benefit them the most, we feel. They aren't terrible with other dogs or kids but we just think they would prefer not to have to deal with them very often. Both dogs walk on a leash and love to ride..they will jump right in ready to go. They seem to be crate trained and housebroken (although we do not guarantee that). A secure fenced yard is highly recommended unless you want to walk them.<br/>Tucker saw the vet on 9/25/26 and was found to have no major issues noted. He was noted to have the cysts mentioned above but no other issues were noted. He has been started on Simparica Trio for flea control and heartworm prevention with us and tested negative on his heartworm test. He also tested negative on his fecal.<br/>Tucker weighs around 50 pounds. He is ready to find his forever family.<br/>If interested in giving Tucker his forever home, please submit your interest and your adoption application via email or text ONLY to 352-215-3260 (phone calls will not be answered or returned from this number).
