Tucker

Description

Tucker originally came to the shelter on 5/14/2026 as an urgent owner surrender due to his owner's life changes. He was adopted soon after and lived in that home, happily, for 5 months. Unfortunately, his new people also had a huge life change and made the difficult decision to return him to our shelter on 11/7/2026. He truly did nothing wrong and it was a hard choice. He looks to be a herding breed mix, which could at least include border collie and Australian shepherd. He has a unique brindle coat that is medium length, and he is about 4 years old. He is fully vetted and microchipped and his fee of $150 is sponsored by his former adopters.  Tucker is a little reserved but is a very nice and loving dog. He loves attention! Tucker has had some basic training and is pretty well mannered. He has done okay with dogs of similar size but is not a fan of smaller animals. He has done well with kids 5 and up. He is an active boy who does need regular exercise to keep him happy. He will need regular grooming to keep his coat looking awesome. Someone with some experience with herding breed types would be great! NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport.
