Story
happy boy seeking forever!MUSTARD NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Mustard      Best Guess for Breed:  Lab mix Best Guess for Age: 3 years as of April 2024        SEX:  Male   Approximate Weight:  63 lbs   Gets Along With:   Mustard is good with other dogs and has lived with children ages 5 and 6. He hasn't been seen with cats but can be tested.   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home   All about Mustard: Mustard came to Lucky Dog as a young puppy and was quickly adopted out. He has been in a loving home since he was a small puppy and has been well tended and loved. Through no fault of his own, he now needs a new home.   His previous humans say he was wonderful in the home. He lived with children ages 5 and 6 and was very good with them; he was described as playful yet appropriately cautious or protective considering their small sizes. He has lived with other dogs and has interacted with dogs at doggie daycare and dog parks; he did well with them all and loves playing with them. When he was a puppy he slept overnight in a crate and did well. As an adult, he is occasionally crated for a few hours and still is good in there.   Overall he's a loving, happy, playful boy who is in his prime, now out of his puppy yips and full of that marvelous adult energy and love. He is eager to once again be a loyal companion to his own humans. What do you say? Is Mustard the perfect condiment for your life? 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.

Look no further because Rocks is here to steal your heart! This adorable black furball is not just your average dog – he's a canine companion extraordinaire, waiting to bring joy and companionship into your home.  Despite his rugged-sounding name, Rocks is a gentle soul who thrives on affection and attention.
