Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Lucy is a sweet, energetic young Cattle Dog mix who is just under a year old. She is a compact girl - not very tall and weighing around 40 lbs. She was adopted from the pound as a young puppy, but was sadly returned at 10 months old. There are no children in her current foster home, but she loves all the other animals and just wants to play with everybody she meets. Lucy is proving very easy to train and wants very much to make her person happy. She knows how to sit, walks well on the leash with only occasional reminders not to pull, and has learned not to jump up on people. She also listens well when off leash and is very good about coming when called. She appears to be at least partially housebroken and is working on crate training in her foster home. Lucy is high energy due to her breed and young age, but with daily exercise she settles right down into an easy-going sweetie who just wants to be your best buddy. She would especially love to go to a home with other dogs, and despite her playfulness she is respectful of the older dogs in her foster home when they let her know they are not interested in romping with her. Lucy is an all around great girl just hoping for someone to give her a fresh start in life.
Pics coming!
