About Lucy

🌟 Meet Lucy: your tenacious little sidekick with a heart so big, it could burst! At just 3 years old, this adorable terrier/boxer mix weighs in at around 30 pounds of pure personality packed in! 🎉 Lucy has been on quite the journey, staying in a few different foster homes while we unraveled the secrets to her happiness and safety. And let me tell you, folks, we’ve finally cracked the code! This delightful gal is a homebody who thrives in a calm, structured environment. She needs her very own yard to frolic and lounge in - apartment living? No, thank you! 🏡 Lucy takes her role as a neighborhood watch dog very seriously, and let's just say crowded hallways are not her jam. Instead, give her a fenced yard, a cozy sunny spot to snooze, and a daily dose of fetch or tug-of-war, and you'll see her true joy! Lucy is potty trained and crate trained, not to mention she absolutely adores her doggy pals. But let's clear the air - cats, not so much! 🐾 She’s a bit of a protective soul, so her ideal family will be one with adults or older kids who understand her need for personal space. Slow and steady introductions are the way to go, especially with newcomers - bring treats, and you’re in! Now, Lucy’s loyalty is off the charts! Once she bonds with you, she's a boundless source of cuddles and companionship, always eager to sit by your side. However, she might be a bit cautious around strangers initially, particularly men. But patience is key, and with the right approach, her sweet and silly side will shine through like the sun! ☀️ Currently, Lucy is polishing up those leash manners and working hard on reactivity. Loud trucks? A little nerve-wracking. But don't worry, a few games of "find it" with treats can work wonders, helping her feel secure. Just remember, she’s still mastering recall, so she’ll need to be on-leash unless in a secure area. Lucy dreams of a home that embraces her need for structure and play, a place where she can be the brave little guardian she was born to be - minus the chaos of high-traffic living. If you're on the hunt for a loyal companion with a lively spirit and a love-filled heart, Lucy just might be the girl of your dreams! ❤️ Ready to welcome this shining star into your life?
