Lucy has a friendly personality and gets along well with other dogs, though her exuberance might not be to everyone's taste, so a meet and greet is a good idea. She’s also great with kids, making her a wonderful family companion. Her $150 adoption fee covers a vet exam, vaccines, spay, deworming, heartworm test, and microchip.
