Lucien

Hi! I’m Lucien —I’m a golden retriever pup turning ONE at the end of this month, and if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I adore people. Like, seriously. If you’re around, I want to be near you, wagging my tail and ready for the next adventure.<br/><br/>I’m looking for a special kind of home — not one that wants to “fix” me, but one that will accept me just as I am. See, I have something called hydrocephalus, which basically means I have extra fluid in my brain. A neurologist confirmed it, and while I’m still the happy, energetic pup you’d expect from a golden, I do have some quirks that come with it.<br/><br/>Here’s what that looks like for me:<br/><br/>I spin in circles, mostly to the right — especially when I get excited! And let me tell you, I can get going fast.<br/>I sometimes get head tremors, but they pass.<br/>I’m still not potty trained, and that may continue to be part of my life.<br/>I get a little jumpy and mouthy, but hey, I’m still a growing pup learning about the world!<br/>Despite all of this, I have so much joy and curiosity. I love going out on walks and exploring new places. Meeting other dogs? Easy peasy — I’ve met several and done really well. I don’t have a mean bone in my body. I just want to be loved, played with, and given the chance to live a full and happy life, even if it looks a little different than the average dogs.<br/><br/>I’m not looking for perfection — I’m looking for understanding. Someone who can meet me where I’m at, help guide me gently, and let me be the silly, affectionate, one-of-a-kind guy that I am. I promise, if you open your heart to me, I’ll fill your days with love, laughter, and golden retriever goofiness.<br/><br/>So… want to be my person?
