Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to the fabulous and fun-loving Lucy! This stunning 3.5-year-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever/Poodle mix is not just a pretty face; at 55 pounds, she’s a delightful ball of energy and loyalty, always ready for life’s next big adventure! 🌟 Lucy thrives in the great outdoors, where her spirit really shines! Just picture her stretching her legs in a secure, fenced yard, her playful spirit taking flight as she chases after squirrels and rabbits — oh, the joy! 🐿️ This girl needs space to run, so a country home or an active family that appreciates her strong hunting drive would be simply perfect! What makes Lucy all the more special is her incredible loyalty. She’s protective of her humans and has a heart filled with sweetness, especially when it comes to kiddos! 🥰 She’s crate trained and fully house trained, and once she’s had her fun outside, she knows how to settle down indoors. Oh, and when you give her those gentle ear scratches? Forget about it; she’ll lay her head on your lap and gaze up at you with the kind of love that melts hearts! 💖 However, Lucy does have a bit of a dominant personality, which means she’ll thrive best in a home with confident, well-matched dogs or as the sole superstar. If you’re an experienced dog owner who can provide the structure and continued training she needs, welcome aboard! But let’s get down to the essentials of what Lucy truly needs to live her best life: - A fabulous fenced yard (this girl loves to chase wildlife, and we wouldn’t want her running off on a grand adventure without you!). - An active household or an outdoor-loving individual who can keep up with her energetic spirit. - Someone who understands and respects her strong prey drive, because after all, it’s in her nature! - A home without small pets or livestock (sorry, little friends!). - A thoughtful introduction if other dogs are involved, or hey, she’s cool being the only dog in the spotlight! So, if you’re ready to meet your new loyal, athletic, and intelligent best friend with a bold spirit who will keep you entertained and loved, Lucy could be your perfect match! 🌈 And remember, the magic starts here — *apply through the Buddy App* to bring Lucy into your life! ❤️ Paws Across Pittsburgh will have Lucy ready to meet her forever person on 5/11/2025!
