Introverts, this one's for you! Not a party animal... more of a cozy-corner companion. *NOTE FROM TUCKER: I would strongly prefer a home with well-socialized, confident canine companions!* TUCKER KRAFT is a 9-month-old small mixed breed puppy (about 13-15 lbs) who is gentle, shy, and incredibly sweet. He's under-socialized and needs a calm, patient home where he can be given the time and space to come out of his shell at his own pace. Tucker isn't reactive at all and is beautifully polite with food and treats! He's quiet and prefers cozy corners or tucked-away spots where he can watch the world go by. He wants to be near his people and will quietly follow them around, but if you reach to pet him, he'll retreat back to his safe space for now. The good news? His confidence is already growing! In just a short time in foster, he's started licking fingers, sniffing faces, and taking treats directly from hands instead of off the floor. On leash, he doesn't pull at all and stays right behind his handler, happily letting them lead. He's doing great with potty habits, eats his dinner in his crate like a gentleman, and already sees his crate as a safe, happy place. Tucker Kraft is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and given a flea and tick preventative as well as a heartworm preventive. Tucker absolutely LOVES other dogs and truly thrives with calm, confident canine friends! He uses them as confidence boosters and would do wonderfully in a home with stable friendly companions as long as proper, slow introductions are performed. Tucker's perfect home will be with someone patient, kind, and committed to giving him space at first - even 'ignoring him' outside of basic care for the first week or two - so he can learn to trust on his own terms. He may always enjoy having a cozy retreat space, and that's part of his gentle charm. This isn't a plug-and-play puppy, but he is a once-in-a-lifetime soul dog for the right person. Watching Tucker bloom is going to be something really special!
