Story
Bruno is a 3-year-old dog with a sweet, loving personality. He is house-trained, knows basic commands, and loves being around his people. One of his favorite things to do is cuddle up on the couch or in bed and relax with his family. He’s also playful and enjoys having fun, whether that’s playing with toys or spending time outside. Making the decision to rehome Bruno has been incredibly difficult. I currently have three dogs, and it has become more than I can realistically manage. Bruno deserves a home where he can receive the time, attention, and love he deserves. Bruno would do best as the only dog in the home. While he can get along with some dogs in the right circumstances, he does best when interactions are closely supervised and with dogs he knows and trusts. Because of this, I believe he will thrive in a home where he can be the main focus. Bruno is a wonderful, affectionate dog looking for a loving forever home. My priority is finding the right family or person who will give

Please contact Courtney Nobles (courtneyn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Young boy seeking adventure! POLO NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Polo and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (05/10) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Rockville, MD (5154 Nicholson Ln Kensington, MD 20895)!   Name: Polo         Best Guess for Breed: German shorthaired pointer mix Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of April 2026      SEX:   Male   Approximate Weight: 53 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   Check out this video of Polo: https://youtube.com/shorts/4exMrX8zYng.   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 Shorthaired Pointers. 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:  He is a happy and fun dog who needs lots of mental and physical enrichment!  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.

Story
Freddy is an 8-month-old puppy who’s incredibly friendly with both people and dogs. He loves cuddling, fetch, tug-of-war, and trips to the dog park.As part GSP, Freddy is a high-energy pup who needs an active home with 60–90 minutes of daily exercise, including at least 30 minutes of higher-energy activity like running, fetch, or dog park time. Ideally, he’d have access to a backyard or nearby dog park.He’s mostly potty trained and does well on a consistent schedule, though he may have accidents if left too long between potty breaks or when he gets overly excited meeting new people or dogs.Freddy currently needs to be crated when left alone and would do best in a home where he isn’t left alone for long periods. He’d likely thrive with another friendly dog around.He’s affectionate, playful, and would make an amazing companion for an active family.

Story
Meet Bubba! Rescued from a high-kill shelter, this is a big, lovable, playful guy who could be the newest companion to your pack!  With soulful eyes and a tail that wags for days, this four-year-old darling is a sweetheart who just wants to find and be with his people.  He is very house-trained, working on being crate-trained (going well), knows his name, “sit" and “down," and is non-destructive when left alone. Bubba is a polite house guest. He doesn’t bark at dogs or people as they walk by, both when he’s in the house or whenever out on walks.  Attentive and affectionate, Bubba is happiest on walks or runs, playing in the yard, chewing on his toys and lounging on the couch with his people. He is a big lap dog who loves to show love and get love in return. Though he is large, he is well-behaved enough for an apartment, as long as he gets enough exercise. But if he had his preference he would love a bit of yard to go along with his walks. (And he is always down for a walk!) He is an active guy who will walk/run/play hard and nap hard. He loves to romp around in the yard, sniff everything, play fetch, and has shown to be interested but not aggressive toward wildlife. He is eager to please, food motivated (good for training) and is a champ in the car. He responds well with firm/calm direction but also handles the noise of (a lot of) kids, play and laughter with ease. Bubba needs a loving household and a person/family who will continue to train him and treat him kindly. Bubba would be happy as your only dog or with another playful dog or dogs. He has socialized well with other medium and large dogs. He shows no food aggression or resource guarding. He would do well with younger and older kids alike. He isn’t totally aware of his size but will remind you of it when he gets excited, pushes into you for attention or play or when he lays on you for cuddles. With his loving and playful heart, Bubba is ready to find a forever family who will love him. Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $525.00   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog.
