Story
Okay, listen.Lady is NOT the easiest dog - at least, not at first and not for the wrong person. You give her an inch and she takes a mile. If she senses hesitation or fear, she WILL take advantage of it and act out until she gets her way like a literal toddler. She will probably get snappy if you push her boundaries too hard and too fast. She will steal the bracelets right off of your wrists. She sheds. She will try to take you out at the kneecaps. She's partially deaf. She's A LOT.But the way this dog LOVES? It's with her entire heart and soul. She loves hard. She loves fiercely. She is loyal and devoted and will worship the ground you walk on. No one will EVER be happier to see you than she is. She's the kind of dog that will imprint on you like a baby duck. She's the kind of dog that you can call your soulmate because the connections she makes with people? Unmatched. Once this girl bonds with you? There's no breaking that bond.She needs time and patience. She's already been done the disservice of being promised time and patience only to be given up on less than 24 hours later. She doesn't need that kind of heartbreak again.If you're firm and consistent with her and you make it clear that you won't tolerate her shenanigans, guess what? HER SHENANIGANS STOP. She's a boundary-tester. She's an envelope-pusher. But if she respects you and you respect her? She stops testing you.Lady Luck is good on a leash and LOVES her walks. She's a fetch expert and pretends she's not. She's good with other dogs and wary of cats. She does not like kids - she's done her time with them and she's over it (probably why she doesn't like her mustache/beard touched at first). She loves car rides and she loves water. She's a 35lb bichon mix. Mixed with what? Sunshine, that's what.Literally all Lady Luck wants is to be with her person. That's it. She does have some separation anxiety which may dissipate as she starts to settle but crate training is recommended.To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.
