My story

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

Hiya gang!

The name is Nigel. I think I look more like a Tiger, but hey who am I to complain!!! ;)

My brother and I were discovered one night by a young lady that was travelling some back roads coming home from work late one evening. Boy, were we a sight. Starving, weak, cold and scared to death.

She had her 2 toddlers in the vehicle with her. Probably not a safe place to be at that time rescuing us, but boy was she brave!!! It was cold and dark, but that didn't stop her. She starting searching under car seats and around the floor boards for old french fries and Cheerios or any food or snack that her children may have dropped so she could feed us.

You know, not a lot of people would have the guts to do this, nor would they take the time. We truly believe that God sent her to us a our guardian angel, whilst He was watching over her and her 2 babies. We are so grateful for her!!

Anyway, she happens to know one of the volunteers at Lucies and called her, desperately begging for help for the both of us. Being the awesome person this volunteer is, she somehow figured out a place for the both of us that night. Hallelujah!!

We are typical puppies learning about walking on a leash, sitting quietly in a crate and making friends with other puppies. Oh yeah, we love to chew on sticks and just play and have fun!

While we are having fun here, it sure would be great if I could have a family of my own. I love to run and romp and play, and maybe one day settle down enough to cuddle on the couch. Won't you please come see me? You won't regret it!!

*** We strive to ensure our dogs are going to a safe, loving and caring home. Phone interviews are required for all adoptions****

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters contact our adoption volunteer either via email or phone. Our volunteer in turn talks to them more about the pet they are interested in. If the adopter seems like a good match, they are requested to complete an application. They come to the rescue location to meet the dog of interest. We also sometimes arrange a home visit to make sure the environment is suitable for the dog. If all is well, they will get a call from a volunteer letting them know they are approved for adoption. They will be provided copies of the vaccination and sterilization records. A delivery day will be arranged for the dog. Either the adopter may come and pick up the dog, or a volunteer can arrange to have the dog delivered. They sign our adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. We do periodically contact our adopters to check up on the dog to make sure everyone is happy and healthy and enjoying their new life!

More about this rescue

Local Unity for Canines In Emergency Situations. We are a dog rescue organization, not a shelter or a pound!

We are a group of neighbors who, as a community effort, are helping the many strays and dumped dogs in the area. We take them in, care for them, feed - vaccinate - worm - socialize, and try to find them forever homes. We do depend on donations to help out, and will accept food, medication, bedding, fostering, and direct donations to Veterinarians.
