Searching for a forever home for this little lovebug! Lucy is a 2 yr old pitbull mix. We rescued her from a neglectful home and have spent the last year working with her. She is house broken and trained in the basics (see video) She is eager to please and LOVES affection. She always wants to be sitting close (or touching) her favorite people or other dogs she’s bonded with.
She's still a puppy with high energy so anyone adopting her needs to be ready for weekly walks and playing fetch. She is 65 lbs if pure muscle. Because of her abusive start in life she has some social anxiety and can be very protective of her people. We’ve worked with a dog behaviorist and Lucy now takes Prozac which has significantly helped her anxiety. The cost is $6/month. The fear-based behavior we saw in the beginning has been eliminated with the prozac, exercise and stable environment.
The best fit for Lucy would be a home with older kids or just adults.
