About Lucy

Lucy is a one-year-old spayed Parsons Jack Russell Terrier with a striking long coat. Weighing in at 12 pounds, she has a charming mix of white and cream with hints of yellow that make her quite the eye-catcher. Lucy has had a sheltered upbringing and comes to rescue from an older owner who didn’t socialize her much. Because of this, she is shy and inexperienced when it comes to public spaces, and could benefit from a patient and active owner familiar with terrier behaviors. Lucy needs a home without cats, small children, or other small animals, as well as being the only female dog. She thrives on physical activity and loves playing ball and splashing around in her wading pool. House and crate training is in progress, so a secure environment with proper fencing is essential—no condos or apartments for this girl. If you think you're the right fit for Lucy, you can find her in foster care in Seal Rock, Oregon. Transportation to a qualified adopter can be arranged anywhere in the Pacific Northwest. Lucy's adoption fee is $200.
