Lacey Female - Spayed Weight: 40#’s Age: 8 months Medium Breed Terrier Mix We would like to formally introduce you to the sweetest little bundle of joy, Lacey. This inquisitive and happy go lucky girl is eagerly waiting to find her forever home and bring endless joy and happiness to her family. This delightful girl is 8 months old and brimming with energy and enthusiasm. With her silky caramel brown and white coat and those soulful eyes, she's a real head-turner. LACEY is the epitome of silliness and friendliness. She adores every human she comes across, and has a particular soft spot for belly rubs and ear scratches. She's a natural-born cuddler and will happily snuggle up to you on the couch after a long day, providing you with love and comfort. Lacey has been the perfect house guest since she arrived. She doesn’t chew on anything other than her dog toys and the occasional stick. Despite her young age she already knows the commands sit, down and leave it! She's a quick learner and would thrive in a home that can provide her with mental stimulation and positive reinforcement training. She is very food motivated which makes getting her attention for training much easier. This beautiful girl is potty trained but is still learning how to ask to be let outside when she has to go. We leave our back door open most days when we are home and she runs outside to potty whenever needed. We offer Lacey a crate that is left open or a cushy bed to sleep on in our mud room whenever we are gone during the day or at bedtime. She has caught on fast to our routine and doesn’t make a peep at night until we come down to let her out in the morning. Even then she just waits by the gate with full body wiggles to be let out. Leash training is going well!! We go on 45 minutes to one hour walks daily and she enjoys every minute of our adventures. She knows what the harness and leash are for and gets excited whenever she sees them. Do you like to have a co-pilot while you are out running errands? Well you are in luck!! This affectionate girl is also a dream in the car. She has been known to wrap her front paws around my arm and lay her head on my shoulder while enroute to our destination. Just be prepared to make a pit stop for coffee so she can get her own puppy latte while on the road. This little girl has a playful side that's sure to keep you entertained. Whether it's pouncing after her favorite toy after throwing it up in the air herself or zooming around the backyard with her foster sister, Lacey is always up for a fun activity. She would benefit from an active family who can take her on adventures, long walks, and maybe even teach her some fun tricks along the way. She would do well in a home with another dog who can match her playful energy. Lacey currently resides in a home with three dogs of different ages and sizes. She listens well to social cues from the other dogs and has adjusted amazingly to the pack. Lacey’s ideal home would be one where she can be surrounded by a loving family who can shower her with affection and provide her with the care she deserves. Due to her playful nature, we recommend no children under the age of 5 as she is known to get the butt scoot zoomies at full speed. If you're searching for a loyal, intelligent, and affectionate companion, look no further! This amazing girl is the perfect match for you! She's eagerly waiting to become a cherished member of your family and fill your life with boundless love and happiness. Our standard adoption fee is $375 if paid by cash or check, or $385 if paid by credit card (which includes a $10 processing fee). This fee covers spay/neuter surgery when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative, and microchipping. In order to be considered for adoption, we require a fully completed application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with your entire family. Please note that submitting an application does not commit you to adopting and does not guarantee approval—it simply allows us to begin the review process. If you are interested in adopting or would like additional information, please email us at adopt@safehavendogsIL.org to request an application. Keep in mind that the breed and size listed in each dog's biography are our best educated guesses and are not guaranteed. Safe Haven Dog Rescue reserves the right to refuse the adoption of any dog or puppy to any applicant for any reason.
