My story

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

handsome young boy ISO happily ever after!

HT NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Approximate Weight:  67 lbs

 

Gets Along With:  HT likes other dogs and needs to go to a home with a friendly resident dog. We haven't seen him with cats but are happy to discuss integration techniques with any interested adopters. HT should not go to a home with children under the age of 12.

Special adoption considerations:    HT can be a little nervous and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog who will show him that all is well!

 

All about HT:

 

HT arrived into our care back in 2020 and was adopted out to a loving home. He has been very well taken care of! His previous humans say he's a sweetie who really likes being around his people. In the home, he's a good boy whose crate is his safe space. He returns to his crate on command with 'Time for bed,' and sleeps there overnight. He also stayed in his crate when his humans were out of the house.

 

He loves his walkies! Likes to pull a bit ahead, taking in all the scenery. He doesn't react to other dogs or people - maybe a quick sniff but that's it. Off leash with other dogs, he likes playing chase and running. Wrestling and roughhousing isn't his thing - he prefers open play. (He would not be the best fit for a home with a resident dog who likes rough play.)

 

He is long out of the puppy yips and knows what he loves - walks, adventures, his people, a chill home, a friendly resident dog who will show him the ropes, his people. And don't forget his people. He is eager to once again love and be loved, to bestow upon his people all those adoring gazes he's stockpiling. What do you say? Is HT the one you see by your side?

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.
