Information
Lucy is a sweet gentle "lady" dog! She is unable to bark and works very hard to map her territory. She is housetrained but must be taken out. She is learning socialization skills since she was probably a puppy mill mama. She loves her foster daddy and is beginning to cuddle with her foster mommy. She does not like the crate but does sleep there without any problems. She gets along well with her foster siblings but is startled when they bark. She has "bumped" into her foster brother (Golden) and her foster sisters (terrier mix and silkie terrier) but they are understanding and willing to let her go wherever she wants. She loves the outdoors and to roll in the grass. Does well with a leash but must be gently guided due to her blindness. Her diet has been modified to help her lose a "little" weight. She continues to blossom like a spring flower everyday. Lucy will be spayed prior to adoption.
If you are interested in adopting Lucy, please fill out our adoption application.
The Board of Directors has voted to prohibit the use of Invisible/Electronic fences on Blind Dog Rescue Alliance dogs. This policy will be effective immediately.
