My story

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

Please contact Melissa A Aten (melissaa@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet boy ISO fresh start and love!

MILLER NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!

 

Name:  Miller          Best Guess for Breed:  Lab and hound mix

Best Guess for Age:  3 years as of March 2024       SEX:  Male

 

Approximate Weight:  37 lbs

 

Gets Along With:   Other dogs! We haven't seen him with kids or cats but he can be tested

 

Currently Living at: DC area foster home.

 

Miller is Looking For: His forever home! Through no fault of his own, this sweet boy ended up in the shelter. That isn't awesome for him because he is missing his right eye and it seems like his left eye isn't 20/20. He can see, but is slow to navigate in new environments and might bump into things. So you know what Miller wants most of all, right? To have his own forever home where the furniture isn't constantly moving around!

 

He's eager to once again have his own humans to trot alongside on all those adventures - his sniffer works perfectly well and he's looking forward to exploring the world with it! Most of all, though, he just wants to once again be a well loved dog, under his own roof for all his days. In exchange, he promises all the love and loyalty and happy tail wags his humans could ever want. 

What My Foster Says About Me: Miller is an endearing little pup who is always happy to see his foster parents and his foster sister. While he may not have the best sight, it doesn’t slow him down when playing with our resident dog, and they enjoy a good sprint around the yard. He also responds well and adapts quickly to other dogs’ cues when playing! While on walks he politely passes people and other dogs, but does enjoy the chance to meet a new friend! Being outside clearly makes Miller happy, as he constantly has his nose to the ground to sniff something new, or has his head tipped back, nose in the air, sniffing his surroundings. He sometimes does startle in response to something he didn’t fully see, but a few words of reassurance help him reorient to his surroundings and move on to the next thing to sniff. Miller can pull a bit on walks when he wants to but he’s very responsive when we call him to come back to our sides—on walks or otherwise. Speaking of training, he hasn’t had an accident inside the house at all, and sleeps calmly in his crate overnight! 

Miller is a very sweet pup who clearly has a lot of love to give and is looking for someone to love him back!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
