Lucy is a 5-year-old, 31 lb Australian Cattle Dog who is ready to find her forever family! She's a cute, smaller-sized Blue Heeler who is loyal, observant, and smart. Lucy was rescued from a situation where she was living on a chain. Thanks to the support of Kind Spirits Rescue Dogs Pet Lifeline, she was able to be spayed, and her previous owner graciously allowed us to keep her. Now, Lucy is in a private foster home in Texas with 8 other dogs, learning what it feels like to be loved and included. She is playful with most dogs, though she might try to nibble heels if she doesn't immediately like another dog, which is classic Heeler behavior! Lucy is the reigning champion at fetch and has so far ignored cats. She can be a little peculiar around small dogs, but we're working on that! She walks nicely in public and is a great car rider. Lucy's typical Heeler behavior includes supervising everyone, following her people from room to room, and giving dramatic side-eye when judging your life choices. She can be timid with new people and needs a little time to warm up.
