Lucky's Story

Lucky is proof that tough cookies come with freckles and big, hopeful eyes. This handsome Cattle Dog arrived with a broken leg, but here’s the good news: it’s healing beautifully and won’t require surgery. He’ll need weekly bandage changes and a recheck with the orthopedic surgeon in four weeks, and while he may end up with a slight limb deformity from the way the fracture is healing, he’s expected to be comfortable and ready to live life to the fullest.<br/><br/>Right now, Lucky is rocking the "rest and recover" lifestyle, which means he’ll need a family committed to keeping his brilliant Heeler brain busy while his activity is limited. Think puzzle toys, training games, nose work, and all the mental enrichment his clever heart desires. Once he’s cleared, this active boy will be ready to bound into adventures with his favorite humans.<br/><br/>Lucky’s dream home? One where he can shine as the one and only pet—no cats or dogs, just him soaking up all the love and attention. He’s sweet, resilient, and so ready for his fresh start. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick with grit and heart, Lucky’s your guy.<br/><br/>Lucky weighs 54lbs
