Lucy is a young Australian Cattle Dog, urgently seeking a rescue, foster, or forever home where she can rest and recover from a minor, temporary illness. At just 21 months old, this affectionate girl has been at the Kern County Animal Services - Bakersfield Shelter since July 31, 2026. She's ready for a loving home where she can thrive and live her happiest life. Rescue and adoption efforts are crucial, as the shelter currently houses over 300 dogs in cramped conditions, making them susceptible to euthanasia. Lucy deserves a chance to experience the joy of a family. If you're interested in adopting or fostering, please reach out through the Companion Animal Protection Society (CAPS). Lucy is spayed and vaccinated, making her ready for her new adventure. This sweet girl is looking for a devoted adopter who can provide her with the care and love she needs. Could you be the one to give her the home she's been waiting for? Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
