My story

Lucy | 44 lbs | 6 years old | Dog-Friendly | GTA Lucy is a joyful and loving dog. She's sweet and snuggly. She loves to meet new people, get along well with other dogs, and is very polite on leash. Lucy has had one eye removed and has a significant vision impairment in the remaining eye. While she can see a very little bit now, she will likely lose all vision over time. This obstacle only reveals Lucy's incredible spirit. She is brave enough to try everything that any other dog likes to do. She's constantly learning and building confidence. One amazing thing about Lucy is how smart and patient she is when learning something new: if she doesn't get things right the first time she tries again, or strategizes a new way to do it. Lucy needs adopters who are similarly patient and resourceful! She craves adventures like any dog and loves to be outdoors. Lucy has a lovely relaxed energy. She's a deep sleeper, and doesn't require tons of daily exercise--one big walk a day usually does it! She needs a home with a fenced yard, as she loves to spend time outside. She'd do great as a second or third dog or as a solo dog, as long as she was with someone who was home quite a bit. She likes the security and companionship of canine or human company. Lucy came from difficult circumstances and it's beautiful to see her start to experience a new kind of life. She does a little happy dance and bark to show she is feeling excited and thankful about her fresh start! Any family would be lucky to get to introduce her to new comforts of living in a home, new adventures to try, and new people to befriend.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Lucy, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
