Meet the wonderful Lucky, a darling boy who’s a delightful blend of shih tzu and lhasa apso! At around 9 years young (but don't let that age fool you—he’s got the spirit of a puppy!), Lucky weighs in at 17 lbs of pure adorableness. 😍 This brave little soul was discovered in some tough conditions. Poor Lucky had been malnourished, struggling with a flea allergy that left his skin inflamed and his coat in dire need of love. But wait! In just a few weeks of proper care and love, he’s transforming beautifully, and soon, that luscious coat will return, making him even more charming than before! 🐶✨ Lucky can be a tad scared or nervous when he first arrives in a new space, so his forever family will need to shower him with a sprinkle of patience and understanding. Once he gets comfortable, his sweet, happy personality truly shines. 🌈 Lucky is on the lookout for a calm, loving home—preferably one where older children can respect his space because this gentle soul thrives on kindness. From his foster mom: "Lucky is a total cuddler! He loves snuggling up and is a huge fan of playtime with toys. While he’s learning how to socialize with other dogs, he’s making great strides! Sometimes he may bark to get their attention, but every day brings new progress!" 🥰 Lucky is crate trained, potty trained, and gently communicates when he needs to go outside—adorable little paw taps or a soft bark will do! Plus, he’s a pro with the doggy door. 🚪🐕 He adores his walks and meeting new friends along the route. He would thrive best in a home with another low to mid-energy dog or as the only pet where he can soak up all the love and attention. With patience and care, this affectionate companion will be an incredible addition to any family looking for a loyal friend. 💖 If you're in search of a cuddly, loyal buddy who just wants to stay by your side, then Lucky could be the perfect match!💞 Apply to welcome Lucky into your home through the Buddy App!
