Lucky's Story

Lucky is a 2-year-old Jack Russell-Chihuahua mix with a big personality packed into a small body. His previous family described him as loving, playful, and always happy, and it's easy to see why-Lucky loves to be close to his people and is perfectly content being carried around or snuggled up for cuddles. When it's playtime, tennis balls are his absolute favorite and he's always ready for a fun game.<br/><br/>Lucky gets along well with other dogs and has lived successfully with both cats and kids, making him a great candidate for a variety of homes. He can be nervous when meeting new people, so he'll need a patient, understanding family who will let him warm up at his own pace and help build his confidence.<br/><br/>Lucky is not house trained yet, so his future family should be prepared to continue working on training with consistency and positive reinforcement. With time, patience, and lots of love, Lucky has all the potential to blossom into a wonderful, devoted companion.<br/><br/>Ready to Adopt?<br/><br/>You have two options:<br/><br/>#1- VISIT IN PERSON<br/>Come during our open adoption hours: Tuesday - Saturday,12:30 - 3:00pm.
