About Lucy

Lucy has recently joined the shelter, as her previous owner could no longer care for her. This sweet girl is a 9-year-old mixed breed and is now on a journey to find her forever home. Dogs like Lucy often come with some past training, but it's important to note that her behaviors may change in a new environment.
