Meet Tugger!

Tugger is a cute 5-year old male Basset Hound mix who was found as a stray and left unclaimed at a shelter.

Tugger has a tan short smooth coat, short bowed front legs, a long body, a long tail, and an adorable face with a tan mask, white shading on his muzzle, and large chocolate brown floppy ears. His left eye is brown and his right eye is blue .. which gives him a unique appearance.

As you can see in his photos, he is missing some hair on his back/tail (most likely due to a flea allergy) and he has several 'skin tags' and small growths. He will soon be looking like a 'million dollar baby' when his hair grows back.

Tugger aka Tugboat to us has been great. He loves walks and loves his people. He is great with the other dogs and good with cats. He respects other dogs. His demeanor is super and animated. Loves some toys. He is good in crate at night.

His front legs are typical basset. One facing south and other northeast. He is easy to love and good with other dogs on walks and great on leash.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
