This handsome boy is Tuco!  He has a big personality and an even bigger zest for life!  This friendly lad loves meeting people and is always ready for his next adventure.  Tuco is full of energy and would thrive in an active family who can give him plenty of exercise, long walks, and exciting days out exploring.  Whether it’s hiking, woodland walks, or trips to the beach, Tuco will be your enthusiastic companion every step of the way.  In kennels, Tuco can be very vocal and loud, but this is just his way of expressing himself.  Once he’s out and spending time with people, his affectionate and loving nature really shines through.  As a young, energetic dog, Tuco still has a few manners to learn.  He can be quite strong on the lead and would benefit from continued training to improve his lead walking and learn some basic commands.  He can also be a little humpy when he’s over-excited, so his new adopter will need to be patient and consistent in helping him channel his enthusiasm in more appropriate ways.  Grooming isn’t Tuco’s favourite pastime, and he’s not particularly keen on being brushed, so this is something his new owner will need to work on gradually using positive reinforcement.  Tuco is a lovely boy with so much potential.  With the right active home, ongoing training, and plenty of love, he’s sure to grow into an amazing companion.  If you are looking for a fun-loving, energetic best friend to share life’s adventures with, Tuco could be the boy for you.  He will need a private secure garden.

Tuco has socialised with other dogs whilst in our care, he can be a little unsure at first and does prefer a calmer female.  We do feel he could potentially be rehomed with another dog following a successful meet and greet.

As Tuco came into the home as a stray, we have no previous history on him so would prefer any children in the home to be 14+ years.

No cats for Tuco.
