My story

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

Meet Achilles
German Shepherd / Belgian Malinois mix • 6 years old • 110 lbs • Neutered male

Achilles is a big, handsome, loyal guy who is ready for the right home. At 6 years old, he’s the perfect mix of adventure buddy and couch companion—he loves hiking, camping, playing fetch, and splashing in the water, but is just as happy snuggling up at the end of the day.

He is house trained, crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and gets along with other dogs. He’s also e-collar trained and enjoys his routines, peanut butter treats, and chewing on antlers.

âš ï¸ Home Needs

Achilles needs a home with older children or no children. He is not comfortable around toddlers and needs a calm, structured environment where he can relax and feel secure.

His Perfect Match

An adult home (or older kids), someone who enjoys the outdoors, and a family who can give him space, consistency, and love.

Achilles is a loyal, intelligent companion who will thrive with the right person. If you’re looking for a devoted best friend for adventures and cozy nights, Achilles is your guy.

Additional adoption info

1. Submit an Application for Adoption by using the form on our website www.luckytalesrescue.org.

2. Our Adoptions Committee will review your application to ensure a good fit both for the dog and your family. We will also check your personal references as well as your vet reference. If you haven't done so already, please call your vet to give permission for your records to be released to us.

3. Once we have reached all of your references, we will be in touch with you to schedule a home visit/meet and greet! This part of the process is to ensure that the dog is the best fit for your family! Also, if you have other pets, this gives us the opportunity to observe how they react to one another!

4. If all goes well with the home visit, we will finalize the adoption!!

Please note that we do not do trial adoptions--we promote a lifelong adoption with the dog and family. Therefore we want to ensure that it is a proper placement from the start. We do understand that things come up, which is why we promise to support you through this process and after the adoption.

Our adoption fees are $250.00 for adult dogs and $350.00 for puppies.

No refunds on adoption fees.

More about this rescue

Lucky Tales Rescue is a community focused non-profit organization. Our goal is to save and protect unwanted animals by educating the community, adopting to responsible homes, and providing lifelong support for our adopters. With love and determination we ensure proper placement by matching animals with appropriate forever homes and helping the animals start their own lucky tale. Our rescue is made up of a group of dedicated volunteers who focus on a better quality of life for the animals whose lives we touch. Our volunteer group is our rescue family; we operate and conduct ourselves just like a true family would. Our hope is that through education and support we can prevent animals from being abandoned and left alone in shelters.
