This Rescue Dog Comforts Children Who Suffer From the Same Chronic Disease As He Does

We are sorry to tell you there isn’t actually a dog version of Batman, but there is this tinny puppy by the name of Tucker who kind of looks like a bat and does charity work!  

Tucker is a rescue, found a few years ago by Linda. He is a mix between a few small dogs, but, unfortunately, he suffers from MPS VI (mucopolysaccharidoses). This means that Tucker can’t use his front legs and he has to wear protective goggles due to his blurry eyesight.

None of these obstacles stop Tucker from being an Instagram sensation.  Why? Because Tucker is one of the happiest dogs you will ever meet. He always smiles, he absolutely loves other dogs, and, he volunteers at a center for children with special needs in his home town, Los Angeles. He goes there once a week to give extra hugs to the children who suffer from the same syndrome as he does.   

Tucker’s Instagram profile is never boring, he is always up and running somewhere, and he is adorable along the way. Follow his profile if you want a daily dose of positive and honest smiles from the cutes dog.
