My story

Meet Lukas — our medium mystery mix with a résumé that strongly suggests Border Collie or Hound, and a personality that confirms he has very strong opinions. Lukas is very intelligent and in the right home, with the right training, will thrive and be an amazing hiking, running, adventure buddy. We can even see him doing well in agility classes. He can be stubborn and has perfected the art of pretending he didn’t hear you. He’s not ignoring you… he’s just deeply committed to his own thoughts at the moment. This handsome guy needs a strong owner who wont let him get away with anything. He’s kennel trained, enjoys the company of other dogs, and loves to play — though he sometimes likes to play Mr. Tough Guy, so he’d do best with a more submissive canine buddy who won’t take his theatrics personally. Lukas can be a bit resource-guardy with high-value treats (because obviously the good snacks are serious business), but we’re actively working on that and he’s making progress. At the end of the day, Lukas is a determined, fun-loving goofball who is ready to trade rescue life for a family of his own — preferably one with patience, a sense of humor, and maybe some hiking shoes. Think Lukas could be the next member of your family? Apply at azdawgz.org

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