Meet Lucky, a sweet and smart girl with so much love to give! Lucky ended up in rescue after her family lost their home, so she's still figuring out that the world can be kind and safe again. Because of that, she's naturally a little shy and cautious when meeting new people and will need someone patient who can give her the time she needs to feel comfortable. At home, Lucky will let you know when someone is coming to the door, but she's much more relaxed out on walks and doesn't bark at people or other dogs. She'd do best in a calm, predictable environment where she can settle in at her own pace. Once she feels safe, her personality really shines! She loves lounging on the couch, "watching" TV with her people, and rolling over for belly rubs-lots of them! In fact, if you stop too soon, she might gently remind you that she's not quite done yet. She's house-trained, crate-trained, great in the car, and walks nicely on a leash. Lucky absolutely LOVES being outside-whether she's going for a walk, soaking up the sun, or just listening to the birds. She also enjoys keeping an eye on everything happening outside the window from her favorite spot on the couch. Mealtime is definitely her favorite part of the day, and she loves playing with her toys-whether it's a good game of fetch or just running around proudly with a toy in her mouth. At just over 2 years old, she still has a few puppy-like habits, including being a little mouthy, but her foster family is successfully working to redirect that behavior toward her toys.
Ideal Home
Lucky would do best in an adult-only home or one with older, respectful kids. She is not a fan of being grabbed or held and can be a bit protective of her kennel. She may be uncomfortable if strangers reach for her, so she'll thrive with someone who understands her boundaries and helps others respect them too.
