Lucy

Lucy is an adorable 5-year-old black Lab mix who weighs 31 lbs. She is a bright, cheerful, friendly, energetic dog who loves to run in the yard, go for walks, and explore the big, wide world. After lots of exercise, she likes to sit on the couch and lick your face while you scratch her. She hates to be ignored or left out of the fun things you are doing. When she was rescued, she was severely underweight, dehydrated, and suffering from a bad urinary tract infection and bladder stones. After surgery and antibiotics, she is now in excellent health. However, to prevent a recurrence of bladder stones, Lucy will need a special urinary care diet along with unrestricted access to clean water going forward. Lucy has become a mealtime superstar by quickly mastering and remembering multiple interactive food puzzles. Due to a history of neglect (starvation) Lucy wants to eat constantly. As a result, she may guard her food from other animals in the house. Potential adopters should be prepared to feed Lucy separately. >> Dogs: We have no information on how Lucy gets along with other dogs. Please bring all canine family members to the shelter for a meet and greet prior to adoption. >> Cats: We have no information on how Lucy reacts to cats. As a result, a cat free home, or one that can initially **separate** cat from dog to do slow on-leash introductions, is required. >> Children: Due to lack of known history, we have no information on how Lucy gets along with children. Please bring all resident family members to the shelter to meet Lucy. Lucy is spayed, microchipped and UTD on vaccinations. If you are an energetic person looking for a smart, happy dog to share adventures with, come meet Lucy!
