Meet Lucy

Hi, my name is Lucy, and I'm looking for my forever family! One of my favorite things in the world is belly scratches. Give me a little attention, and before you know it, I'll be rolling onto my back and waving my front paws for more. Right now, I'm living with lots of other pets, and we all get along well. At first, I felt a little insecure in my new surroundings, but I made friends quickly and settled right in. I'm a quiet girl and rarely bark. Instead, I like to communicate with little grunts and other funny noises. Sometimes they even sound like a low growl, but that's just my way of talking to you! I enjoy car rides and make a great travel companion. I also have my own crate and do well in it. There are a few times when I don't really want to go in, but once I'm settled, I'm comfortable and relaxed. When it comes to treats, I love having something to chew on, and boiled chicken mixed into my kibble is one of my absolute favorites. If you're looking for a sweet, gentle companion who loves affection, gets along with other pets, and enjoys spending time with her people, I might be the perfect match for you. I can't wait to meet my forever family. Lucy has had dental (nice clean teeth) and spay surgery, she is also vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee of $350 helps offset the rescue's medical expenses. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think she could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application* helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/ . *Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up.
