Helping Labs Find Their Fur-Ever Homes
Tucker
Meet Tucker a 7 year old black lab.  Tucker is a playful and
energetic lab that loves walks and swimming.  He’s a pushover for
belly rubs and wants as much attention as you can give.  His only
problem seems to be a skin condition caused by allergies.  He’s
presently allergic to some kinds of food like rabbit, lamb, rice and
carrots and several kinds of grasses.  The grass presents a
problem since Tucker is one to roll in the grass any chance he
gets.  Tuckers food is a trout and sweet potato single protein and
single carbohydrate food.  He get’s the most relief from his
constant itching after he’s had an oatmeal bath and special
soothing rinse no less than once a week.  Poor Tucker spends a
lot of time with an Elizabethan collar on to keep him from licking
and biting at himself.  

He is presently awaiting an appointment with a dermatologist to
determine the best course of action for his condition.  Tucker is
possibly going to need to undergo a series of allergy shots to build
his immunity and manage his allergies.  If you’d like to help with
the costs of Tucker’s care please consider a financial gift that will allow continued help for labs like
Tucker.  While he is a high maintenance lab at this time, we are confident that we can stabilize Tucker and
have him ready for adoption by a family that is willing to work with his allergies.
