After arriving in our care back in January, Lacey has made a truly incredible transformation. She came to us in rough shape, but thanks to surgery and lots of TLC, this sweet girl is now healthy, thriving, and ready for a forever home to call her own.
Lacey is a low-energy kind of gal who lives for sunshine naps, snuggles on her terms, and quiet companionship. Her favorite form of exercise is casually exploring the backyard. She’s not much for walks—you might find yourself carrying her halfway home! But give her a warm couch and a cozy blanket, and she’s in heaven.
Though timid at first with new people, dogs, and cats, Lacey quickly melts into the loving, snuggly girl she truly is. She’s formed a beautiful bond with her foster sister dog—they nap in sunbeams together, bicker like siblings, and occasionally break out into short, clumsy zoomies that will absolutely make you smile. She’s also gentle and patient with her foster family’s young children and even lit up with excitement when she met a playful puppy.
Lacey is crate trained, house trained (with just a few stress-related accidents early on), and sleeps soundly through the night in her kennel—as long as it’s in the same room as her person. She does have some lingering separation anxiety, which isn’t surprising for a dog who likely never had a true home before. She gets very attached to her people and will follow you from room to room, always hoping for a cuddle break.
Her ideal home is a calm, loving environment where someone is around more often than not—maybe with a retired couple or someone who works from home and is looking for a constant companion. Another calm, playful dog would be a great bonus. She truly thrives when she feels safe and connected.
Lacey prefers her body handled gently—she doesn’t enjoy being picked up or having her face touched—and she likes affection on her own terms (which she will happily ask for often!). She’s not a lap dog by force, but absolutely by choice. She’ll climb right into your lap or melt into your side when she’s ready, and it’s always a gift when she does.
She rides well in the car, is still learning the joys of toys, and will do just about anything for a treat. Lacey is also on a special vet-prescribed diet to keep her digestion and skin healthy, and any future adopter should be prepared to maintain her care and provide the comfort and resources this sweet girl deserves.
Lacey’s past wasn’t kind to her—but she hasn’t let that dim her gentle spirit. She’s a squishy, soulful, sunshine-loving sweetheart who just wants a soft place to land and a person (or people) to love with her whole heart.
If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key shadow who will nap on your feet and adore you forever, Lacey just might be your girl. 💛 To chat with our team about Lacey, please complete an application on our website: https://www.ruffstartanimalrescue.com/
