Lucy

7/7/24: Foster or foster to adopt home needed! Everyone meet Lucy! This 2 year old Chocolate Labrador Retriever is one of our newest rescues when a family member reached out to us after her mom was admitted into the hospital with terminal cancer a few days prior. Lucy was in her Oswego County home alone with family members stopping by to care for her for several days before it became evident that her mom wasn't coming home. Lucy was great companionship for her former owner and we couldn't imagine going through what she is going through with the added stress of worrying about what would happen to your pets once you're gone as well. We knew we had to help so the owner could focus on her own health and we'll being. Lucy is a sizeable girl of #86 and can be like a bull in a China shop since she doesn't realize she is a big girl. She does pull on a leash and needs work on housebreaking but she really is a loveable girl looking for a home where she can get love, exercise and some training to be the best she can be. She is good with other dogs and people, but may be a bit much for small children due to her size and energy levels. If you're a lab lover, Lucy will likely steal your heart and with all that she's been through, she deserves that! If you're willing to open up your heart and home to a deserving new addition, fill out an application today! And don't forget to call your vet to give consent to talk to us when we call! Due to her size and bubbly personality, adoption requirements are: -Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY. -Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered. -Lucy is good with the other dogs in the home so a home with active canine companions should work out well! -Homes with children over 10 years old should be ok since she has shown well with children. -Willing to have current dogs/family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match. -Having time available to care for, socialize and start training of a new pet. Preference will be given to homes with previous dog experience. An adoption donation of $350 is being asked, if you decide to adopt, in a few weeks once she is spayed, but fostering is free!! She has had her vet check, is current on vaccines, intestinal and external parasite treatments. Please help us to continue helping those that knock on our doors!
