Story
Please contact Courtney Nobles (courtneyn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Young boy seeking adventure! POLO NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Polo         Best Guess for Breed: German shorthaired pointer mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of September 2025       SEX:   Male   Approximate Weight: 57 lbs   Gets Along With:  Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home   Polo is Looking For:  Adventure! Polo looks like a mix but take it from us - that dog is a prime example of the sporting breed German shorthair pointers are. Keen nose, high intelligence, and boundless energy - check, check, and check! He's up for plenty of mental and physical enrichment - advanced agility training, nosework, lots of running in parks, or lots of of long excursions out in nature or any combination thereof will make Polo a happy, tired dog. AND all those will help bond Polo and his humans intensely while having so much fun. He and his forever family will be very lucky to have each other!  What My Foster Says About Me:  We will update this once he 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.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at      www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!! Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs! To learn about fostering, please contact fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org! BE A SPONSOR!!!!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Prince — A German Shorthaired Pointer mix with a heart of gold and legs built for adventure!  This handsome boy has the classic athletic GSP build, making him the perfect partner for hikes, runs, and outdoor exploration. He's started hiking with his foster parents and is learning the manners required to be a good hiking partner. But......don't let his sporty looks fool you—Prince is just as content being your personal couch potato, ready to binge-watch your favorite shows and snuggle up for a nap. Prince is a master of affection and loves nothing more than a good cuddle session. He’s also a toy aficionado with a special love for his giggle ball and a knack for creating a “treasure trove” of toys on his dog bed. His foster parents affectionately call him “the collector” because he delights in gathering his favorite items—and he’ll even entertain himself by expertly unloading the toy box! Prince currently lives with five medium-to-large foster dogs and thrives with companions who can match his vocal, rough-and-tumble play style. However, he does need slow, supervised introductions to new dogs. While he’s never had issues in his foster home and responds well to verbal correction, Prince can be reactive when leashed or crated around other dogs. With other dogs, he may become possessive of toys or high-value items. His body language can be misread by other dogs, so a home with confident, tolerant canine siblings—or a solo-dog setup—may be ideal. He’s doesn't seem to be a fan of small dogs, and his reaction to cats is unknown. Prince would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand canine body language and respect boundaries. He thrives in a calm, structured environment where his cues are honored and his playful energy is welcomed. Prince is also a star student! He’s incredibly treat-motivated and loves healthy snacks like carrots and brussels sprouts. He was a quick learner in obedience class, and continuing his training will be a fun way to strengthen your bond. He’s fantastic in the car and would be an incredible copilot for road trips and always ready to hit the open road with his favorite humans. NOTE: Dog Breed Information We do not utilize DNA testing for breed and mix determinations. The breed and mix identifications provided on our webpages are based on information from shelter staff, previous owners, and our visual assessment of each dog’s physical characteristics, demeanor, and behavioral traits.

Meet Waylon! 🐾❤️ Waylon is an absolutely adorable 2-year-old Pointer/Hound mix with the softest, most soulful eyes and a sweet, earnest expression that melts you the moment he looks your way.
