About Lacey

Lacey is a sweet soul who came from a challenging background, being part of a surrender involving 43 dogs. She's about 3 years old and has been slowly adjusting to the comforts of a loving foster home. Currently, she’s up to date on her core vaccines and is set to be spayed on October 7th. Once she's healed, she will be ready for her forever home. Lacey needs a compassionate and patient adopter, ideally one with previous dog experience. Her ideal home would include another friendly canine companion to help her feel secure, as she’s used to being among other dogs. Additionally, an adult-only home or one with older children who can provide her with the space and time she requires to acclimate is essential. A fenced yard is also a must for Lacey’s comfort and safety. Ready to meet Lacey and give her the loving home she deserves? Click apply to start the adoption process.
