Dunedin Doggie Rescue Adoptable of the Week: Lucy

Lucy is the perfect little lady, hoping that someone will see that.

Lucy may be an older girl but she still has a lot of spunk. Lucy was given up by her owners at age of 10. How can anyone give up their dog after 10 years? It must have been hard for them, but more importantly, hard for Lucy.

She is just a little thing, barely 15 pounds. She is a Schnauzer-terrier mix, with scruffy black hair, clear eyes and a gentle, loving disposition. Lucy loves everyone, not with the rambunctious nature of a pup but more of quiet understanding that humans are good and she really enjoys their company.

For Lucy, sitting on the sofa and watching a movie is the best way to end the day.   She hardly ever barks and she has wonderful house manners, and would love the chance to prove that to someone.

Although she loves her walks, they are not as long as they used to be. But she will be the first one to the door if someone has a leash in their hand. She is good to other animals she meets, like cats and dogs. If a dog tries to intimidate her, she simply walks away. That is the beauty of age … with it comes the wisdom to do the right thing. She is a perfect little lady waiting for her perfect fur-ever home.

Are you the perfect fur-ever home for Lucy? If you would like to adopt Lucy, and you live in Dunedin, Clearwater, Clearwater Beach, Safety Harbor, Ozona, Crystal Beach, Palm Harbor or Oldsmar, fill out an adoption form, or stop by one of Dunedin Doggie Rescue events to meet her.
