As you scroll through Lucky's photos you can see a bit of a transformation. When we rescued him he was a mess. He had so much hair it was getting stuck in his mouth. He has since been groomed and what a handsome boy he is. He is quite the charmer too. We haven't met a single person that doesn't love him. He makes regular appearances at coffee shops, the bank and farmer's markets - and gets asked back repeatedly. Lucky is an affectionate boy as well. His favorite things are toys and being near his human(s).
Lucky is looking for a home where his family is home a majority of the time. Parent(s) that enjoy kisses, hugs and cuddles are a must for Lucky. He enjoys his walks but does not need/want to walk miles every day. Indoor games of fetch with his favorite toys works great for Lucky. Lucky would prefer to be the spoiled only furry kid in the house. Lucky loves to cuddle and would prefer to sleep with you. He is a world class cuddler.
Lucky is a sweet boy. Like many small dogs he does come with a few things to be aware of. As noted his mouth was a bit of a mess and required a full dental leaving him with only a few teeth. He'll need wet food for the remainder of his life. He also has a very mild heart murmur that the vet suggested preventative heart meds for. He has no symptoms and this certainly does not effect him - he is an energetic, happy boy.
If this handsome boy sounds like what you are looking for, apply today! He is eager to meet you and start the next chapter of his life!
Lucky weighed 8.2 pounds when we rescued him.
