My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello,

I had gone to an animal shelter on three separate occasions two years ago to find a young dog for my kids. Each time I went, Lucky, was the only one wagging his tail so I had to adopt him. He is extremely friendly but has a tendency to nip at strangers (joggers and people) when he gets excited. He was house trained when I got him but after I put him outside with a dog house for several months, he kind of forgot when I let him inside again but I'm sure he can be retrained. He's super happy all the time and loves taking walks. He's got a nice deep bark for such a small dog. He's not a yappy dog. He barks only when he sees someone or another animal (squirrel, dogs and cats). I take him to get groomed and washed monthly so he's been taken care of regularly. His shots are up to date, as well.

He has cherry eye and I haven't been able to raise enough money for the surgery and lost my job two months ago. The lowest cost I've heard for the surgery is $1,000.00. I've also heard that wiping his eye daily is fine and he can live with that.

You'd be very Lucky to have this cute guy!
