Lucky first came to us in 2020 when he was about a year old. He was adopted shortly after but recently returned because his owner was moving.
Despite his life letdowns, Lucky keeps a positive attitude and is holding out hope that someone will see this post and decide to adopt him and give him the physically and mentally stimulating forever home he deserves.
Lucky is 5-years-young, healthy, spry, and knows many tricks and commands. He is housebroken and walks nicely on leash.
Likes: car rides, walks, tug of war, running, jumping, cuddling, counter surfing, trash picking, being showered with affection, doing tricks for treats, high-fives.
Dislikes: nail trims, having high value toys/treats taken away (resource guarding), going into his kennel (here at LRHS), being moved when asleep - can you blame him?
Lucky is a great communicator and will bark if he needs to go out or if there is any unwanted activity going on. He will show his teeth if you try to take away something that he considers "high value".
We recommend Lucky for a home with kids 10+ years old, without cats, and ideally without other dogs (due to his tendencies toward resource guarding and being an attention hog). He will play with other dogs but we don't believe he's willing to share his special people with another canine. He has many good quality but he never learned to share.
Lucky comes fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped.
This fine fellow is Lucky. Lucky needs a home.
