Pet profile
Tucker is a sweet, affectionate boy who truly shines once he's out and about with his people. He is a wonderful walking companion who loves to sniff and explore and has a generally easygoing demeanor. Tucker is very people-oriented and consistently shows friendly behavior with both familiar and unfamiliar staff. He loves physical affection and will happily lean in for pets, cuddles and scratches. He often relaxes enough to lie down, show his belly and enjoy gentle chest rubs. He takes treats gently, is food-motivated and responds well to verbal cues and leash guidance. He knows a few basic commands and is eager to learn, especially when food is involved! Tucker enjoys being around other dogs, but a home without cats is recommended. He has a positive history living with children. Overall, Tucker is a loving, gentle companion who will thrive in a home that can offer him regular walks, affection and positive reinforcement. With patience and continued guidance, Tucker is sure to continue growing in confidence and will make a wonderful addition to your family!

February is National Spay/Neuter Awareness Month!
In recognition of Spay/Neuter Awareness Month, organizations in the San Diego Animal Welfare Coalition (SDAWC) are increasing access to free and low-cost spay/neuter surgeries to address community need and prevent unwanted litters. Thanks to a generous $10,000 donation to SDHS, 50 appointments will be provided free for pet families earning under 100,000/year. The free appointments have been filled but low-cost options are still available: sdhumane.org/spaymonth.
