Lacy - In Foster Care

UPDATE on 10/8/25, Lacy tested positive for heartworm. She will begin treatment, and will benefit from a foster or adoptive home who can provide her with a quiet environment during this treatment. She will need restricted activity and her family would need to coordinate with our vet for her medications and infusion dates. <br/><br/>Meet Lacy! Lacy is approximately 6 years old and is thought to be a possible Australian Cattle Dog type mix. <br/><br/>Lacy, along with over 80 dogs, was removed from a property in WI before coming to our facility. Unfortunately, Lacy lived in horrendous conditions and will be needing a family who understands her recent trauma and is patient with her during this transition. She is incredibly sweet, OK with being handled, and loves humans, so that's definitely a plus! What she will need help with is basically the dynamics of living as a beloved pet. This could include things like leash walking, car rides, and exploring the outside world. <br/><br/>Lacy is obviously used to being housed around other animals, including other dogs and small animals. Because of this, we think she'd likely prefer a home with other animals as she finds comfort being around her housemates here at the shelter. <br/><br/>So far, she is doing great in her kennel at the shelter and will likely adjust well in a new home if she has an area she can decompress and resort to if she needs some quiet time. <br/><br/>This darling little dog has been through so much already, but she's going to blossom even more once she has a family to call her own who can give her consistency, patience and love. <br/><br/>We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been approved.<br/>Please fill out the following PDF Application and email to monroecountydogshelter@gmail.com<br/>https://www.co.monroe.wi.us/home/showpublisheddocument/35564<br/><br/>Lacy will be fully vaccinated & spayed prior to adoption. Her adoption fee is $200.
