Sweet Boy Looking For New Home
My name is Tucker. This is my story. My first mom adopted me when I was a puppy. She started bringing me to Dog Republic. (thedogrepublic.com) I was socialized, trained, and went on pack walks with other dogs. When I was 2 years old my mom got hurt. She had to make the really difficult decision to give me up. She surrendered me to Dog Republic and that became my new home. I was well cared for and loved. My current mom worked at Dog Republic as a pack walker. She fell in love and began fostering me and eventually adopted me. My new mom has gone back to school and her schedule does not allow her the time to give me the life I deserve. I am looking for a new loving home. And I hope it’s with you!
