Lucas had a tough break—after three years with his previous family, he found himself back in foster care. He was reportedly nipping at the kids, which isn’t too surprising for a Miniature Pinscher or Rat Terrier mix that likes to think he’s in charge. Returning to foster wasn’t easy on him emotionally, but after some time, Lucas settled smoothly into the new routine and has had no behavior issues since. He’s small, laidback, and mostly keeps to himself except when it’s food or potty time. If you want a low-maintenance companion who’s happy with a nap and a quick walk, Lucas is your guy. He can be a bit sensitive about his hind leg, ears, and tail due to past injuries, but will let you take care of them. Gentle handling goes a long way with him. Lucas does well as an only dog or with gentle canine friends, but homes with kids are not a fit. He rides well in the car and enjoys getting out for short strolls. He’s all about calm company in an adult, stable household. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
