Knock knock!
Who’s there?
It’s me! Luca!

I'm here to paint a picture for you: picture a stunning Husky Shepherd mix, with a coat that's as beautiful as the sunrise and eyes that sparkle with warmth and love.

Yep, that's me! At three years old, I've got the perfect balance of youthful energy and maturity. Oh, and guess what? I'm housetrained! No more accidents for this pup, woohoo!

One of my favourite pastimes is people-watching. There's just something so fascinating about watching the world go by from the cozy spot by the window.

Now let me tell you about my personality. I'm gentle, sweet, and oh-so-affectionate. My absolute favourite game? "Brush me!" Seriously, there's nothing better than feeling that soft brush against my fur while I bask in your love and attention.

But wait, there's more! I'm an active girl who loves her walks. Whether it's a leisurely stroll around the block or an adventure through the park, count me in! And when we're all tuckered out from our adventures, you better believe I'm up for some cuddle time.

I haven’t been tested with cats or kids yet but I consider myself pretty easy-going so I’d probably like them! I have now been tested with dogs and we got alone just fine.

So, what do you say? I'm ready to be your best friend forever.

Have your people call my people!
