This adorable MINI Aussie-Collie mix has MEGA AMOUNTS of LOVE TO GIVE.
Tuck has an easy-going and sweet personality; he is just around a
1 year-old with fun puppy energy who is a great CANINE COMPANION for another dog.
Tucker is wonderful with children and enjoys their company. He loves nothing more than getting to play with them outdoors and cuddling inside.
However, a very, very close 2nd favorite is playtime, wrestling, racing around with other dogs.
Expect plenty of kisses and a little shadow following you around the house in true Aussie style.
Tucker and his brother were fostering with one of our favorite foster families; they have two human children ages five and seven but no dogs or cats. Their boys, 5 and 7, are gentle with dogs and the two dogs are gentle with the boys!
However, they had a trip planned so while they’re gone, we have Tucker at our home in North Dallas where he’s also enjoying playing with our three Aussie of all sizes.
Tucker is also eager to please and enjoys learning new things. He loves their plush squeaky and “unstuffables” squeaky animal toys. He is showing an interest in learning to play fetch and retrieve.
With such a playful personality and willingness to engage with his humans, Tucker will make a fun little student for a couple or family who enjoys exploring various training tricks and techniques!
Tucker will make a great companion for another energetic young dog which is why we want applications from homes with at least one other dog; a young, fun, active female or another submissive male 30 lbs and larger is ideal.
A Special Note About Children:
Tucker is a wonderful exception to DASH’s usual placement guidelines. We are comfortable considering families with children ages 5 and older, provided the family has previous herding-breed experience and understands the unique personalities, instincts, and needs of these dogs.
Tucker is NOT “nippy” or aggressive in any way. he’s from a really rural area so will need to work on leash training, but he’ll be a friendly guy on leisurely walks who will love greeting and meeting other dogs and people.
Tucker is potty-and-crate-training since he has only been off the streets and safely indoors for one week. He’s very eager to please and is quiet in his crate — he just needs a special rawhide or chew-toy and he will stay busy then pass out!
