About Lucky

They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Lucky is an energetic 3-year-old Pomsky (Pomeranian/Husky mix) who has been deeply loved since puppyhood and is now searching for a foster or forever home due to family circumstances. With his striking gray, blue, and silver coat with white and cream highlights, Lucky brings a blend of independence, curiosity, and an affectionate spirit into every room. As a classic "people dog," he's never shown aggression toward humans or other animals, and he absolutely thrives on companionship and activity. A true Husky vocalist, Lucky communicates his desires—sometimes voicing playful protests about going into his crate. He is friendly with other dogs but hasn't been fully tested around children or cats yet. Lucky enjoys being an attentive watchdog, barking only when someone approaches the door, and is undisturbed by normal household sounds. He is strong, manageable on a leash, and can be a little anxious outdoors during storms or when exposed to loud noises. Fully house-trained and crate-trained, he settles in his crate at night and currently spends a good portion of his day there, but he would much prefer a home with more freedom and adventure. Lucky's ideal home will offer a fenced yard, an active lifestyle, and plenty of opportunity for socialization and learning. He already knows several commands like Sit, Hug, High-Five, and "Let's go outside." His health is impeccable, his vaccinations are current, and monthly preventatives keep him in top shape. Born under the artistic and dreamy Pisces sign, Lucky may surprise his new family with a gentle, intuitive side. His current family wants nothing more than to see him thrive and continue being the joyful, loyal companion he was meant to be. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
