About Lucky

Lucky is a tiny, 6-pound, 4-year-old Chihuahua who's all about forming that unbreakable bond with his human. You’ll find him snuggling up close, making him the perfect velcro companion for anyone who enjoys quiet moments. He’s low-energy and perfectly content to curl up right next to you or even tuck under blankets for a cozy nap. His journey hasn't been simple; Lucky was surrendered by someone who won him in a poker game and couldn’t give him the love he deserves. Though he's become comfortable in his foster home, the need for a stable, caring family has never been more urgent. Lucky flourishes in a home with an experienced Chihuahua owner who has a flexible schedule. He prefers to have all the attention to himself, so a home without other pets would suit him best. While he doesn't require much physical activity, he enjoys brisk walks and outdoor time. He is a work in progress when it comes to house training, so he'll need a consistent routine and dedicated management as he learns. On the leash, he can be a bit excited, but he's smart and eager to please, picking up commands like "sit" and "paw" with ease. At first, he may bark at strangers, but he warms up quickly when he gets to know them. If you’re ready to open your heart to Lucky, this affectionate boy is waiting for you to give him a forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
