Lucy's Story

EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout<br/>EASE OF TRAINING: Eager<br/>FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Bashful<br/>PLAYFULNESS: Semi-Pro<br/>FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Tolerant<br/>LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Sometimes<br/><br/>Lucy is a vibrant and soulful 3-year-old Red Heeler who is ready to find her "forever" teammates. True to her breed, Lucy is as smart as she is beautiful, though she sometimes takes her "job" a bit literally-don't be surprised if she tries to gently herd the family from the kitchen to the couch! <br/><br/>While she is a sweet-natured girl who absolutely thrives on cuddles and soft toys, she is a sensitive soul who prefers the company of women. She can be a bit shy and fearful around men, but with a patient, consistent, and kind approach, she has shown that she is more than capable of building trust and opening her heart.<br/><br/>Because Lucy is a high-drive herding dog currently "unemployed," she does experience some separation anxiety when left alone. She is looking for a home where her humans understand the Heeler engine-someone who can give her the mental stimulation and physical exercise she craves. In exchange, Lucy promises to be your most loyal companion, your favorite snuggle buddy, and the best "supervisor" your household has ever had.
