Hi there, I’m Rucker 🐾💙    I just made my way up from Mississippi, and I’m on the lookout for my forever family!  I may be a big guy, but trust me—I’m basically a giant marshmallow. I’m a chill, easygoing boy who loves hanging out with my dog friends and my humans. I’m not wild or over the top, but every now and then I get a burst of zoomies that will absolutely make you laugh 🤪💨  My favorite things in the world?   ✨ Being close to my people   ✨ Snuggling up for cuddles   ✨ Going on nice walks   ✨ Tagging along to the kids’ games and cheering them on   ✨ Relaxing in the yard by a cozy fire while you toast s’mores 🔥🍫  I’m really just an all‑around good boy who wants to be part of everything you do. I’d love a family who will toss a ball with me, take me on adventures, and let me be part of their daily life.  I’d also do great with some basic training classes—not because I’m naughty, but because I want to bond with my new family and learn all the things that make me the best companion I can be 🐶🎓  If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, gentle big guy to complete your family, I’m your boy.   Let me be part of your story today 💛🐾  If interested in Rucker, please apply online: ADOPTION APPLICATION or email us at Info.FetchingHeartsRescue@gmail.com.  Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption:  Thorough veterinary examination.
