Tucker is a 3–4-year-old, 46-pound medium-sized sweetheart who we think is a Boxer/Pit Bull/Pointer mix. This special boy has been through a lot, but you’d never know it from his infectious happiness and loving personality. He is incredibly gentle, polite and affectionate. Tucker gets along great with his small dog and kitten foster siblings. He is sweet and respectful with everyone he meets and has such a naturally easygoing temperament. For the most part, Tucker is a laid-back, mild-mannered guy, but he’s always ready to show off his spunky side when it’s time to play! He loves playing with other dogs, chasing a ball, splashing around in the water, and curling up on the couch for cuddle time. Even when he’s having fun, he is gentle and never plays too rough. He is also a remarkably mellow and quiet dog. Tucker is housebroken, crate trained and settles easily into a routine. He isn’t a chewer or a digger and is truly an all-around easy dog who is happy to hang out and be part of whatever you’re doing. Tucker does have an improperly healed femur fracture, which left one of his legs slightly shorter than the other. As a result, he sometimes has a little hop in his step. It doesn’t seem to cause him pain or keep him from enjoying life, though it may put him at increased risk for arthritis as he gets older. Despite everything he has been through, Tucker doesn’t let his past—or his little hop—slow him down. He is simply a happy, loving boy who is ready for a family to give him the same unconditional love he gives so freely. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $300. All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption. Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs, vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to .secondchancedogrescue and complete an application today! All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Lab-Pointer, a charming crossbreed of the Labrador Retriever and Pointer, originated from the desire to combine the best qualities of both parent breeds. Physically, they are typically medium to large dogs, showcasing a athletic build, often with a short, dense coat in various colors like black, yellow, chocolate, or liver, and sometimes the distinctive Pointer markings. Their temperament is generally a delightful blend: intelligent, loyal, and eager to please like the Lab, combined with the Pointer's alert and energetic nature. This makes them highly trainable, though they do require consistent exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom. While affectionate and good with children, their energy levels mean they are best suited for active families with a yard, rather than small apartments. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns inherited from either parent, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions, and certain cancers, making responsible breeding and regular vet check-ups crucial for their well-being.
