👋 Meet this fabulous fellow, Lucky! 🎉 This charming 2-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix is truly the definition of a loyal companion. Weighing in at a solid 50 lbs, he has journeyed from a timid pup—skin and bones, with his tail tucked tight—to the confident, handsome dog he is today. Just look at that big ol’ pittie grin and the way his tail wags with joy! 🐾 Lucky is not just a pretty face; he’s smart, eager to please, and let’s be real, he absolutely adores snacks! 🍗🍖 He has a funny way of stealing hearts without even trying, and he is ready to become someone's cherished family member. ### 🏡 Home Wish List: - A fenced yard for those epic zoomies and security patrols 🚀 - Humans who can shower him with love, patience, and lots of delicious treats 🍬 - A cozy single-family home is preferred; after all, Lucky takes his role as the protector very seriously! He'll be sure to keep an eye on any uninvited guests, delivery drivers, or even those suspicious squirrels! 🙈 ### 🐶 With Other Animals: - Lucky prefers to rule as the one and only dog for now. 🏆 A young, submissive pup may be considered, but it’s all about those careful introductions! - As for cats, he’s been known to be a bit standoffish initially but learns to coexist peacefully. Friendly cats? They get major bonus points! 🎯 - Lucky has also lived around chickens and livestock guardian dogs, so he’s got some friends in high places. 🐔 ### 👧 With Kids: Lucky is fantastic with children, including the neighbors’ 8-year-old and 18-year-old. He appreciates kind, respectful kids who will help him navigate this world, especially when it comes to personal space (he’s working on that close-talking habit!). ### 📚 Training & Manners: - **Crate Training:** Kind of! Lucky can use a crate, but he’s also got some lock-picking skills. Escaping isn’t mischief; it’s just him showing off! 🤣 He’s a great homebody and returns easily when called. - **Leash Manners:** About 83% trained. He adores walks and is great in a harness, but hasn't quite nailed that “heel” yet. 🚶‍♂️ - **Potty Training:** Unknown right now, but this clever boy is quick to learn! ### 🧡 Foster Family Notes: Lucky came to us broken and scared, but he has transformed into a spirited bundle of love and energy. Now he greets his foster family with a proud head high and a wagging tail. He’s ready to nestle into a forever home where he can be the best friend and shadow someone needs. 💖 If you've been on the lookout for a loyal, protective companion with a heart as big as his charm, today could very well be your LUCKY day!
