Lucy Adopted
18 moth old female
SF (single, sable, female)
seeks a loving, long term commitment.
Lucy - 18mos old, petite
sable and white female. Lucy is a loving collie that
gets along well with other dogs. She is still a puppy, loves
to play and wrestle with her foster brothers.
When it is time to wind down, she will stay right near her human waiting to snuggle up
for the evening. Lucy
is looking for a forever home that will provide her with
security and stability. (along with love ;)
Lucy came to MWCR from a
shelter situation. Her previous owner(s) gave Lucy
to a shelter - along with a litter of her 8 puppies (see our
Almost
Collies page). Lucy has been through many changes
lately, she is doing well in spite of her recent life's
upset.
With having a litter of
puppies, she has blown out all of her undercoat. She is a
small collie and a bit underweight. In time, her
coat and weight will improve.
Lucy would do best in a
home with another dog. She loves to play and has
the energy of a puppy, with all the perks of an older
collie - she is housebroken. She is a smart girl, learns fast,
eager to please.
We are working on leash training, it is doubtful that she has ever been on a leash until now. She is doing well. (it helps that she knows how to 'sit').
Lucy loves my children and
is good with them. She can become overwhelming to a
smaller child, however, as she wants to puppy play and is
mouthy. We would only place Lucy with older children,
because of this fact. Also, we recommend that Lucy be
placed in a home with a fenced yard, due to her need to feel
safe and secure.
Lucy is very adoptable, and
will be a wonderful companion to almost anyone. We would
recommend obedience classes for Lucy and her new family - not
only to learn 'commands' but for the purpose of bonding to
make her feel secure.
Lucy will fall hard for her
new family and deserves the commitment of forever ;)
Lucy is fostered in Onalaska, WI
