I am sure you’ll remember me as you read my message. I was interested in “Zeus” the hound mix that I actually adopted the weekend before Thanksgiving 2017. I instantly fell in love with him... he was calm yet playful. He never barked when I first walked to his crate, he just wanted me to chase him outside. You were right, he’s got a lot of puppylike energy but at the same time he’s very calm. He’s such a love bug. 

As we took him home, I remembered reading a post on Facebook about him and how his name was Tucker before he came to HES of Chattanooga. So my husband shouted out “Tucker” and he instantly responded!!  he didn’t seem to really respond to Zeus so I was so so happy that he reacted to his actual name. From there, he goes by Tucker.

He and August (our mini schnauzer) get along so well. Tuck has adjusted well and seems to absolutely love life and his home. We are so thankful for this sweet, silly boy. Sometimes they get jealous of the other but they each get the same love and attention. Sometimes they steal each other’s toy, even though they are already chewing on the same exact one.  Some days they act like a bunch of crazies, some days they are totally chill. Ya just never know 😁.
