POTW: Tucker
Hi, my name is Tucker (87356) and I'm a sensitive little guy looking for a home where I can blossom. Although loud rock n' roll music and wild parties aren't really my cup of tea, I still have a spunky side to me. My idea of the perfect date is sharing a few vienna sausages (if you don't feel like snacking I'm fine with munching on them all by myself too!) before bringing out the soft squeekie toys for some good ol' fun! I'm hoping to find a family who will also appreciate my intellectual side and that will continue my education through taking me to puppy school! Are you looking for a sweet companion that thrives in quieter settings? Stop by HSSV and ask to meet me today! Visit the Humane Society Silicon Valley, 901 Ames Ave., Milpitas, or call (408) 262-2133.
