Tucker hasfinally found a homeafter spending over 700 days in an animal shelter.
According to WPDE, the South Carolina dog was taken toAll About Animals Rescue and Transport, Inc.in Jan. 2021after he was found starved and abused. The organization said Tucker arrived with several injuries, including cigarette burns all over his body and knife wounds on his back. Tucker has since received treatment from a vet for these injuries.
Since his rescue, Tucker has enjoyed his time at All About Animals but has remained skittish and afraid of cars, strange people, and children. After arriving at the shelter, the organization moved the dog into a foster home with pet siblings. Tucker got along with his foster family, but their home did not have a fence — which the dog needs to enjoy the outdoors safely — so All About Animals started looking for a forever home that could provide Tucker with a closed space to chase freely.
