Story
A cuddler and social butterfly! This big boy is a big love. He is a happy boy, low maintenance, enjoys hiking, walking , car rides, massages and ice-cream cones.  He will follow you around, lay by you, walk nicely on leash and crash on a bed or couch (a little snoring may be included).  George came to us from a county shelter. They said he was aggressive with other dogs. We never saw that, and he has been very friendly with a large male dog, but as a precaution, we would recommend he be the one and only canine family member.   He likes the outdoors but wants to be with you so he is looking for an indoor home where he can provide and have companionship.  He has lived with other dogs, did well with mindful, considerate older kids. George does not like cats. He is our trainers favorite and comes with continued free training.

Story
Sarge is a young boy who loves to play and needs someone willing to keep up with all the progress this sweet guy has made in his training program. He was adored by his foster caretaker where he would lay quietly by her feet and snoozed while she worked on the PC and provided great companionship for her. She sadly could not keep him due to a move and he has been living a ranch style life since. Sarge is a people lover, he wants nothing more than to please you but he wants to be someone's only dog. With people, the more the merrier but with other dogs, two is a crowd. He has a big heart and a ton of love to give.  Sarge would love to find his forever home before the new year and start his new life in the new year! Sarge is waiting, just waiting for that special someone out there to say I pick you!  Sarge is microchipped, vaccinated and neutered. His adoption fee is $50 and to start off his new home life, if adopted before Jan 1st. He comes with 3 months supply of food, collar, leash, harness and training support.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 28, 2023, 5:51 pm

Story
Maximus, or Max, had a person and home of his own, but all that changed when his person got diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and she sadly passed away. Some of the womans friends knew her prognoses was poor and advocated for Max to try and find him a home. Sadly, she passed away before one was found and he was sent to a high kill shelter. Max was very much loved and enjoyed all the comforts of home which he happily shared with another dog (a black lab). He had also been around other dogs including small dogs (poodle). In his current temporary home, he has also been around a small dog (Doxi). He has reportedly been friendly around children, however, he does have a prior bite incident. It's possible could have been related to his loss since his whole world turned upside down, or due to a prior illness. but even though he has done well with both, we would like to place him in a home where there are no small dogs or children. He is a powerful boy so needs a savvy handler. He reportedly did well at the shelter being handled by staff and techs even under duress and he did well during his vet visit.  His caretaker says he is a sucker for scratches and walks with such a swagger. He is housetrained, well behaved, crate trained and rides well in a car.  Max is vaccinated, vet checked, neutered, microchipped and is ready to start a new beginning with a loving person and safe home to help heal his heart.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 28, 2023, 5:51 pm

Story
Introducing our lovely Rhea-sunshine! Rhea would love to be your one-and-only as she doesn't much like sharing her home with other pets. This beauty can be a little bit wary of new people at first and prefers that all the attention isn't on her but once she gets to know you she becomes an absolute lovebug! Being very polite, never stealing or begging for food, and not interrupting those Zoom meetings makes Rhea an ideal work from home buddy. Especially since she is housetrained, crate trained, and non-destructive! If you're interested in adopting Rhea please submit an application at lucyshoperescue.com/adoptables

Meet Bubba!! Bubba is a 3 year old pittie mix! Bubba has been with us since December 31, 2021. That over a year in a kennel which is no life for a pup like him. Bubba has been dealing with kennel stress and could really use a foster or better yet an adopter!! Bubba had many great qualities [ ] Loves to play fetch [ ] Kennel trained [ ] House broken [ ] Ladies man [ ] Handsome [ ] And photogenic Bubba has seizures and can't really go on walks but if you let him hang out in the yard it will be the best day ever!! Bubba would do best in a home as a only dog or a calmer dog due to his seizures. "Bubba is a great pup who loves to play, eat junk food, and play soccer , he is my best friend and I hope he gets adopted soon. " Can you give Bubba the home he truly needs? Even if it's temporary it will mean the world to him Please apply at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/LHSR/Dog

Story
Hey, there! I'm Gary. I'm a smart boy who knows all my basic commands such as sit, stay, and wait. I'll even stop barking when told "quiet." I am treat- motivated and more than happy to show off my skills in order to receive one! Although I am good with both other dogs my size, I would prefer an adult-only home or older children where I will be given the space and time I need to learn and grow. I've been in Lucy's Hope care for 557 days. That's way too long for a smart boy like me to be overlooked. Please come meet me and give me a chance.

Story
Meet Jewels: A Gem of a Senior Lady Looking for Her Forever Home! My name is Jewels, and I promise you, I really am a gem! I may be a senior lady, but I've got a heart full of love and joy to share with my forever family! I'm already housebroken, crate trained, and a well-mannered lady. You can count on me to be on my best behavior! Despite my age, I still have a playful side and enjoy having some fun, but I'm also a bit of a couch potato - the best of both worlds! Oh, cuddling is one of my all-time favorite activities! I just love being close to people and sharing precious moments of love and affection. When it comes to making new doggy friends, I can be a bit selective (no small dogs please), so I prefer a proper introduction to any potential housemates. But once we're acquainted, who knows, we might become the best of buddies! I have a fun secret to share - I absolutely LOVE playing with toys! So, if you want to make my heart leap with joy, a BarkBox subscription would be just perfect for me! It's like having endless fun delivered right to my doorstep! If you think I could be the gem you've been searching for, don't hesitate! Fill out that adoption application, and let's start our journey towards a lifetime of happiness and companionship together! I can't wait to find a loving family that will cherish and adore me just as much as I cherish and adore them. Let's make this dream come true!

Story
Meet Zelda! Poor Zelda has been struggling for a while with overstimulation. While we don't have many details about her it sounds like she didn't have much structure and would get bored easily in her previous home. Zelda needs a quiet, structured, adult-only home where she can learn that the world isn't such an overwhelming place with the help of one of our trainers. She would do best as an only dog or possibly sharing her space with a like-sized, calm male. If you're interested in adopting Zelda please submit an adoption application at lucyshoperescue.com/adoptables.

Story
Penny is a spunky, quirky, happy 9 yr old spayed female brindle & white English Bull Terrier. She is petite in height but true to her breed traits, strong, feisty but very affectionate. She really enjoys her human companionship so she would do best in. a home that has someone there most of the time. She can be goofy and comical, mischievous, playful and sometimes stubborn but very endearing. She loves, loves, loves toys, especially when you are interacting. Because she loves toys so much and wants to be the queen of them all, we recommend no young children and she should be the only dog as she is not a fan of sharing and does not like other dogs. She was adopted out in March, 2020 but her owner who lived alone, became very sick. He described her as adorable and a great companion. Penny does have some ear issues and will likely require ongoing medication to manage this. Penny loves to laze around and although she enjoys walks, she is a home body and prefers to be indoors in her bed or cuddling on the couch. She is housetrained and good in the home. She would like a family who will provide her all the comforts of home and prefers not to be crated, but would rather curl up nicely in her own bed or cuddle up next to you. Penny is current on all shots, spayed and microchipped.
