Looking for a loyal companion who loves sunbathing as much as a good backyard run? Meet Lucy! Lucy is a sweet young pup with a medium energy level and a wonderfully calm demeanor. She is mastering commands like sit, place, down, and stay, walks well on a leash, and has free roam of the house when her family is away at work or school. At night, she prefers the comfort of her crate.
Lucy’s favorite things in life are simple: spending hours outside, lounging in sunny spots on the deck, and carrying her beloved plush lamb with her everywhere she goes. Since she can be a bit anxious and tends to match the energy of those around her, she is looking for a calm, quiet home (ideally with older kids or adults, and no cats) with a spacious yard to enjoy.
Lucy is spayed, microchipped, current on all shots, and has no medical or dietary restrictions. She’s ready to bring a lot of love and loyalty to her next chapter!
