My story

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

Please contact Diane Pedulla (dianep@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet mama ISO fresh start and love!

PANDA NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name: Panda       Best Guess for Breed:  Chihuahua mix 

Best Guess for Age:   2 years as of November 2025         SEX: Female

 

Approximate Weight:   14.4 lbs

 

Gets Along With:  Panda does well with other dogs and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog. We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!
 

Currently Living at:  DC area foster home

 

Special adoption considerations:  Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. Panda is shy, and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog who will show her the ropes. 

 

Panda is Looking For:  Her forever home! This small sweetie is a sato from Puerto Rico. She did an amazing job of raising her babies Pax, Panzer and Pinky in care after she was rescued, and her puppies have all gone into their forever homes. Panda is now eagerly awaiting her turn!

She wants nothing more than to walk through the world with all the confidence of a well-loved family pet, but to get there she needs extra patient and loving adopters who understand that she hasn't seen so much of the world and how big and scary it can be to such a small dog, and are prepared to give her the support she needs to become confident in new environments. A welcoming resident dog will show her how to dog as well!

She has so much love and loyalty to offer in return. What do you say? Can you see Panda by your side?

What My Foster Says About Me:   We will update this once she has spent time in foster care. 

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .

 

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.

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.
