About Lucy

Meet Lucy, a lovely Beagle with a gentle spirit. She embodies the classic Beagle traits, though she can be a bit shy and takes her time to warm up to new people. Food is not her main motivation, as she's selective about treats. Loud noises frighten her, making her a bit cautious, but she remains composed in the house. However, Lucy transforms into a lively hunter the moment she spots a squirrel or rabbit outdoors, expressing herself with a chorus of barks. Despite her quiet nature, Lucy enjoys the thrill of a good sniff around the dog park and gets along well with other dogs, even if she hasn't yet joined in on play. At home, she loves snuggling on the couch or curling up in bed with her humans. This sweet girl is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and house trained. If you think you might click with Lucy, don't hesitate to get in touch or join one of our adoption meet-and-greets. Your new best friend is just one click away.
