🌼 Meet Lucy, a tender-hearted survivor who's got a heart as big as the great outdoors! 🌈 At just 3 years old, this spayed sweetheart has battled through the most challenging circumstances—rescued from a severe hoarding situation alongside more than 30 other dogs. If that doesn’t tug at the heartstrings, I don’t know what will! Lucy is one of those gentle souls who speaks volumes with her quiet presence. Despite everything she's endured, she's incredibly resilient, bringing joy to everyone around her. This little lady is pad trained, and while she’s not quite leash-trained yet, you can see her determination to explore life outside her comfort zone. 🌿 Imagine her face lighting up as she learns to eat from a bowl and takes in the wonders of the world! 🥰 This soft-hearted girl adores being held in loving arms, finding solace during gentle lap time, and her favorite spot is a cozy dog bed nestled in a peaceful corner—just waiting for someone like you to share it with! 💤 Luci’s never growled or snapped, even in stressful situations; this tells you how truly forgiving she is. But let’s be honest, she’s a bit shy and will thrive best in the hands of someone patient and experienced with unsocialized or hoarded dogs. She’s gonna need your loving guidance to help her flourish! 🌻 What Lucy truly craves in her forever home is a calm and quiet space—so sadly, no young children, please. A fenced yard with a smaller potty area would go a long way in making her feel secure. 🌳 If there’s another kind and confident dog around, that would be the cherry on top! 🍒 A patient person or family ready to lace their daily life with love and a gentle routine would make her feel truly at home. Currently, Lucy shares a space with her buddy Ethel, and they’re learning to develop their independence slowly but surely. This special girl didn’t choose the circumstances of her past, but she absolutely deserves all the love and warmth that the future holds. If you’re prepared to open your heart to a dog who will reward your patience with unwavering loyalty and an abundance of love, then Lucy is eagerly waiting to start her new chapter with you! 💖 Located in Bradenton, FL, Lucy is just a Buddy App application away! 🐾 Don't let this incredible opportunity slip by—apply to adopt Lucy through the Buddy App today! 📲
