About Lux

Lux is a true head-turner with a warm, playful spirit that lights up every room. At 3 years old, she’s packed with personality—a loyal, energetic companion who’s happiest when exploring on long walks or sharing a lazy afternoon on the couch. With her golden and cream coat and - more importantly - her eager, friendly approach to life, Lux charms everyone she meets. Smart and motivated by treats, Lux enjoys showing off her tricks and soaking up attention. She thrives as the only dog in the home and gets along with children aged 10 and up but needs to be the only pet, as she doesn’t get along with cats. She’s not house trained yet, so patience and consistency will help her settle into a new routine. What Lux craves most is a home that can match her energy, offer opportunities to learn, and provide the love she’s waited for. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
