not an apt, townhouse, condo type dog due to the barking at new people

Tucker is a bit insecure and will bark like crazy at new people but if they get low, he'll warm up fast.
Loves walking on the leash with harness and gets excited when he sees you pick it up.
He would do well in a home with a dog or kids...esp kids who loves to play and is learning fetch. A Chuck-it would be your best friend, and his

Although he has a lot of puppy energy...he doesn't play rough except with his toys (he will require the heavy chewer toys).
No resource guarding when those items are being taken away (no soft plush toys).

Are you a hugger....well, Tucker LOVES to give hugs. The weirdest attention seeking hugs. Get your arms ready
Short term separation but calms down...he is learning and patience needs to be your middle name.
He rides well in the car too.
