My story

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

Lucy is a sweet, sensitive senior who came to PACC with her brother after their person passed away. Understandably a bit uncertain of her new circumstances, Lucy has warmed up to her volunteer friends and loves and appreciates gentle affection.

During a brief foster stay Lucy lived with kids and other dogs, mostly ignoring both. She is house trained, loves tasty chew treats, and was described by her foster as friendly and reserved. She’s not fan of being left home alone, so would love to find a family where someone can stay home with her often.

Here`s what volunteers at the shelter have said:

“Lucy is such an angel. A calm, quiet girl, she has opened up and enjoys her time in the play yard. She stands right next to me and asks politely for pets, leaning into me. After losing her person and her home, she really deserves the love and reassurance of a new family who will give her time adjust.”

“This lovely girl is a bit shy and unsure of herself but with slow and gentle interaction, she certainly has a sweet and cooperative attitude. She craves attention and once she gets to know you, she really warms up and is extremely grateful for affection and companionship. She’s easy to leash up and walks calmly on leash.”

Lucy has shared her kennel politely during her time at PACC and has been tolerant and independent when meeting other dogs in playgroup.

Lucy is ready for a retirement filled with gentleness, stability, and love. If you can offer her a peaceful home and the patience she needs to settle in, she’ll reward you with quiet devotion and gratitude. Please ask to meet Lucy today!
