Tuck and his brother, Tove, were found as strays in McRae, GA. Both displayed signs of starving, being very thin, and in need of immediate help. Due to being completely full at the time, we sought out help and were able to obtain a wonderful foster home, which is where both boys have been since.

Tuck is slightly bigger than his brother but just as sweet, gentle and affectionate. He does share the same initial shyness that his brother has but will also become very accepting of new people rather quickly. He also gets along great with other dogs and most likely, will do well in a home with cats.

Tuck has already been fully vetted and recently received an update on all of his annual vaccinations. His recent vet examination for parasites and heartworms both came back negative, further proving that he is in excellent health. Tuck may need additional house and leash training once in a new home.

The hound dog breed is a diverse group known for their incredible hunting abilities and keen sense of smell. These dogs are esteemed for their athleticism, endurance, and loyalty, making them excellent companions for active individuals and families alike. With a rich history of assisting hunters in tracking and trailing game, hounds possess a strong prey drive and a distinctive bay when on the hunt. Hounds come in various sizes and coat types, each with its unique characteristics, but they all share a remarkable intelligence and a friendly disposition.
