Heidi-- Tuck is 6 now, only about 40-45 pounds. I do watch his weight. Gator must have been huge!My son brought him home from a friends house they had both parents. Mom was a blue heeler and dad was red.
He WAS my sons dog, when he still lived here, when he moved out his landlord wouldn't let him have pets so Tuck stayed here. He's my dog now. Sometimes he drives me bonkers when he shoves his toys between my feet when I'm trying to walk, but I love him. He is by far the smartest dog I've ever had, protective, but fairly social too. He loves my granddaughter when she comes, it gives him a job to follow her around. He's famous at the espresso stand. He gets his treat, before I get my coffee. Do your dogs love apples and plums etc? He grazes the yard for fallen fruit and picks all the berries off the bushes that he can reach.
When Tuck came to live with us, I had an albino great dane who was deaf and had poor eyesight. Tuck became his eyes and ears and they were inseparable until Derf had to be put down when he got bone cancer.
