Luci Noodles -- Courtesy Post

Luci Noodles is a gorgeous, 8.5 year, 60-pound pitbull mix who is losing her home because of her loving mom’s serious illness. In the home, Luci is a low-key couch potato and snuggle bug who loves cuddling and blanket time. Outside in a fenced yard, this silly girl will make you laugh over her zoomies. She can walk without pulling on the leash, responds to both verbal cues and hand signals, is very much focused on her people, and is very trainable. She does well in a crate when staying with her pet sitter, though at home she tells her mom she would prefer not to be crated. Her favorite activities include playing fetch and tug-of-war, gnawing on chew toys, receiving a good belly rub or butt scritch, and swimming or splashing in a pool, creek, or lake.<br/> <br/>Luci will bark and visitors and, in some cases (especially unfamiliar men), may need a moment to warm up. Once she’s gotten to know a particular visitor, she greets them enthusiastically. When our volunteer met Luci, she was immediately friendly and ready for affection or play.<br/> <br/>Luci has not lived with children, but she is around toddlers at her pet sitter’s home and does beautifully with them. She has done great interacting with older kids and teens.<br/><br/>When walked on a leash, Luci is reactive toward other dogs; this may be due to prior experiences being rushed by off-leash dogs. So she might do best as an only dog. However, Luci is a thoughtful dog (she thinks before acting) and, with an experienced adopter and a slow introduction, she could do fine with a mellow canine companion. Luci currently lives with two cats and is generally indifferent to them, though she does not appreciate it when the kitties approach her food.<br/> <br/>Luci’s mom says “I just want to impress that Luci is a wonderful dog. I must rehome her. My condition is degenerative and I’m reaching beyond my capacity to care for anyone. She truly is a delight and deserves the best.” We (FFOCAS) are helping Luci’s mom safely rehome her. <br/> <br/>Interested? Please reach out via email (ffocas4pets@gmail.com) or through PetFinder. We’ll ask you to fill out a rehoming application to keep this process as safe as possible for all involved – especially Luci!
