**About Tucker**
Tucker is an adorable 5-month-old Boxer mix with a heart full of love and a spirit full of playfulness. Found alone and scared in the middle of a busy road, Tucker has quickly shown his resilience and eagerness to find a forever home where he can feel safe and loved. He was seen being dumped at the nearby convenience store and a good samaritan picked him up and brought him in.
**Personality:**
**Playful and Energetic:** Tucker loves to play and has puppy energy for fun activities. He loves toys and can also be content playing with a chew bone on his bed.
**Affectionate:** He enjoys cuddles and being close to his human friends.
**Curious and Adventurous:** Tucker is always eager to explore new places and learn new things.
**Ideal Home:**
Tucker would thrive in an active household where he can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. A family that can provide him with love, care, and training will help Tucker grow into a well-rounded and happy dog. Tucker is great with other dogs and would love a friend to play with. We feel he would do well with kids and cats in the home as well.
**What Tucker Needs:**
**Exercise and Playtime:** Tucker needs regular playtime and walks to burn off his puppy energy.
**Training and Socialization:** As a young puppy, Tucker will benefit from basic training and socialization to become a well-mannered adult dog. He is already so well behaved, continued positive training will be so easy for him to learn.

From Tucker’s foster mom:
I was driving to the lake and saw some cars ahead of me swerve to miss something in the road. When the car in front of me went around, I saw a puppy standing in the middle of the highway. I picked him up and took him to the gas station nearby to see if anyone knew who the dog belonged to. The kid working at the gas station told me that a man came in to the gas station with the dog and left without him earlier in the day.
I couldn’t stand leaving such a precious little puppy out in the heat by the highway so I scooped him up, took him to get vetted and then brought him home.
So far Tucker is my little shadow. He waits for me by the door when I’m gone and follows me around when I’m home. He’s sweet, hungry always, and seeking human attention.
The vet says he is 6 months old. He hasn’t had an accident in the house and he is learning to sleep in the crate at night. We will be working on putting some pounds on him!
