About Lucky Havard

Meet Lucky! At 11 years old, Lucky is a Labrador Retriever and Cattle Dog mix who was unfortunately surrendered to a kill shelter when his previous family could no longer care for him. Despite this challenging start, he remains an incredibly affectionate dog who bonds quickly and loves unconditionally. After several years in our care, we’re hopeful that his luck will change, and someone will recognize the amazing companion he is. Lucky thrives on strong connections with his owner and serves as a protective guardian for his household, making him an excellent watchdog for a quieter environment. He would do best as the only pet in a home with an experienced adult dog owner. With his boundless energy and playfulness, daily exercise is essential, and he would greatly benefit from a fenced-in yard where he can run and play freely. This smart boy knows basic commands and has good leash manners, showcasing his eagerness to please and learn. Fortunately, Lucky is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, all ready to find a loving forever home to enjoy his golden years. Could that home be with you?
