My story

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

🌟 Hello compassionate hearts! Allow me to introduce you to Lucero, a resilient 4-year-old female dog who has triumphed over adversity and is now ready to embark on a new chapter of love and healing.

Inspirational Tale: Lucero, meaning "bright star" in Spanish, has lived up to her name by overcoming a challenging past. She came to us after a collision with a car left her with a broken pelvis. Despite her ordeal, Lucero's spirit shines brightly, and she's now on the path to recovery.

Personality:
Lucero is a testament to strength and perseverance. Despite her past, she radiates warmth and resilience. She has a gentle and sweet nature that speaks volumes about her forgiving spirit. She has shown a positive attitude towards some dogs, indicating a potential for loving canine companionship.

Special Considerations:
Lucero's healing journey is ongoing, and she needs a special home that understands her unique needs. Due to her recent injury, a home with little to no stairs would be ideal, allowing her to move comfortably and without hindrance. Lucero's interactions with cats and kids are uncertain, and a patient and understanding family willing to give her the time and space she needs to adjust would be perfect.

Healing Hearts:
Lucero is not just a survivor; she's an inspiration. Her journey is a reminder of the resilience of animals and the transformative power of love. As she continues her healing process, Lucero is looking for a family that will provide the support and care she deserves, helping her blossom into the bright star she was always meant to be.

Adoption Promise:
By opening your heart and home to Lucero, you're not just offering a forever home; you're becoming a part of her ongoing journey of healing and hope. She may have faced challenges, but her spirit is unbroken, and her capacity for love is boundless.

If you're ready to be the guiding light in Lucero's life, offering her the love, patience, and understanding she deserves, please consider making her a cherished member of your family. Together, let's create a bright future for Lucero, where she can bask in the warmth of a loving home. 🌟🐾💖 #ResilientPup #BrightFutureAhead

Additional adoption info

Find the pet for you at the Adoption Center:
Angels of Assisi’s adoption center is open from 12-6pm, 7 days a week. Adoption Specialists and Volunteer Ambassadors are eager to help you find the pet that would fit best in your family.

Adoptable Pets in Foster Homes:
Some of our available pets are currently in foster homes. If an animal is currently in a foster home, it is noted in the animal's biography online. To meet a pet in foster care, please fill out a non-binding adoption application, and the foster parent will contact you to schedule a meet and greet once the application has been approved (generally within 24 hours).

Found the perfect addition to your family? Now what?
The next step is to fill out an adoption application. You can complete and application online (preferred) or stop by the adoption center to fill out a paper application. Adopters must be 18 years of age or older. If you rent your home, we will need to contact your landlord or see a copy of your lease to verify the pet policy. Most applications can be approved within 24-48 hours.

Taking Your New Pet Home
After paying the adoption fee and pending the approval of your application, you may take your new pet home immediately. Adoption fees may vary and can be found on our website at:
