| Tucker |
Hello my name is Tucker; I’m a 1 ½ year old, orange
belton English Setter. My shots are current and I
have been neutered. I was rescued from a shelter in
Central Texas and have been with my foster family
since December. Now that I am all cleaned up, my
coat is a dazzling white with handsome auburn spots
all over my body. My foster mom says that I have
beautiful hazel eyes that are very hard to say no to!
I have learned a few things with my new family, like
sit and stay. I love to get close to people’s faces and
sniff and sometimes sneak a little kiss here and
there. I love to go out for walks and I’m still
learning not to tug too hard. I am working hard on
potty training; I get the idea that I’m supposed to
do my business outside, it’s just that since I don’t
speak “Human,” I am not entirely sure how I am
supposed to ask when I need to go. My foster home
is continuing to work with me on this.
Once outside, I love to chase birds and squirrels in
the back yard, play with Beaujangles, my foster bro.
I am respectful of the fence; some of it’s wood and
some of it I can see through and since there’s so
much to do inside the yard, that’s what I focus on.
When I get a nice juicy bone (JACKPOT!) I’ll look for
good hiding spots for my treasure. Oh, speaking of
hitting the jackpot, guess what I recently
discovered? Well, there are these nice big soft things
in my foster home with blankets and pillows called
beds… Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy I LOVE THEM! I
took such a long nap my foster parents thought that
I had not slept in years; I guess I snored a little too
loudly. I’ve also taught the boy that lives here a
great game to play… we race to see which of us can
get to his bed the fastest! Just between us… I
usually win!
I have learned that cats are friends and sometimes
our cat, Carmen and I will play chase for fun. I love
to spend time with my foster family. I love to cuddle
on the couch and if given the chance will love to lay
on someone’s lap. I’m a little bit timid and
sometimes I get a little anxious when I hear loud
voices or noises. I love to beg for treats but I’m
learning that if I do as I’m told I will get rewarded. I’
m a little thin right now but with care I should fill out
nicely. It certainly is wonderful to know that I am
going to be loved and fed every day.
I experience a bit of separation anxiety and may
tend to chew items because I feel I have been
abandoned. I have found that being in a smaller
room with some dirty clothes from my adopted
family minimizes these occurrences when I am left
alone. I love to ride in the car, and I don’t mind if it
is a long or short ride. I’ll curl up in the seat and
occasionally look out the window. I guess after not
having a lot of love and consistency in my life, I want
to be around the people that are making life so much
better.
I’d love to find a family of my very own. A home
where I get to spend lots of time with my people,
help you run errands, spend some quality time in the
backyard, get lots of love and training (I like learning
new things!)…yes, I think that’s the home for me.
