She was apparently hit by a car and had fractured her front leg. This lady after taking her to the Vet got her to a nearby farm and paid them to keep Lucy thinking that it would be a safe place for her to raise her puppies. However she later found out that Lucy was kept tied up on a short rope all the time, was barely fed and was surrounded by buffaloes. There was a constant danger of her four pups being crushed under the buffalo’s hooves. It was not a good place for this sweet dog and her pups to be so we decided to bring them to the safety of our loving foster home. Few weeks later Lucy and her pups were flown to NJ for chance at adoption.<br/>Lucy's fractured front leg has now completely healed. She is incredibly athletic and light on her feet and will make a perfect candidate for agility training. Lucy has adapted to home-life incredibly well; she is not afraid of indoor/outdoor noises, she plays with toys, and she follows family routines. Lucy shows how much she loves her new found freedom by running and playing like a pup. Today all four of Lucy's pups found great homes and Lucy is waiting for her family to take her home.<br/><br/><br/>Information on the Indian Native Dog breed:<br/>IN (Indian Native), Desi (Local) or Pariah Dog is a pure, ancient, indigenous dog of India that abounds the Indian streets. A long time ago, thousands of years before the arrival of modern pure breeds, a race of dogs much like this one inhabited the Indian subcontinent. These were the very first domesticated dogs and Man's earliest animal companions. It has evolved entirely through natural selection without human intervention of any kind resulting into a very hardy, extremely intelligent, alert and independent thinking dog.<br/><br/><br/>This is a natural breed of dog that is pure in a true sense and how nature intended a dog to be; hence they are way superior to the artificially developed man made breeds that we call pure breeds today. Its origin dates back 12,000 to 15,000 years – older than any other breed. This is a natural primitive breed which is a direct descendant of the early domesticated dogs. These dogs are found to be genetically healthy with no known genetic diseases and a very strong immune system. They are perfectly adapted for survival; a free-roaming life on the street for these dogs is always difficult and often hostile and hence requires high order of intelligence, quick and independent thinking to survive. On the streets it is the survival of the fittest, usually out of a litter some will get run over by cars while others will succumb to hunger and malnutrition. Only the most hardiest and intelligent ones will survive to produce off springs. When this survivor is adopted as a Pet, their owners are often awe struck with their beauty, grace, intelligence, loyalty and hardiness.<br/><br/><br/>They are highly adaptable, quick learners and versatile and are known to be even smarter and definitely calmer than the intelligent Border Collies. They are very agile and excel at many dog sports such as agility and also make great jogging/running companions and can be even faster than Grey Hounds. While active outdoors, they are usually very calm and quiet indoors. They have tremendous stamina and hence need an active family who will take them for a daily brisk walks or a run.<br/><br/><br/>IN Dogs are sensitive by nature and do not respond well to harsh training methods and hence need an even tempered, gentle but firm and loving owner who knows how to calmly and consistently communicate the rules of the house.<br/><br/><br/>These dogs love children and are known to have a calm and gentle demeanor around them. They bond strongly with their people and make an excellent family pet that is very loving, loyal and intelligent. These dogs do not bark much but are always alert; they are friendly yet wary of strangers and make good watch dogs.<br/><br/><br/>IN Dogs are low maintenance dog as they are generally very healthy and like to stay clean; they hardly shed and have virtually no doggy odor. Their smooth, fine short hair coat is easy to groom. They have an all-weather coat that allows them to easily adapt to different weather conditions.<br/>A well-looked after pet IN dog will rarely need to see a vet and may live a healthy life of up to the age of 12 – 16 years.<br/><br/>This is a medium size dog with an average height of 20-25 inches (51-64 cms) at the shoulder and generally weigh about 25-55 pounds (12 – 22 kgs).<br/>They are found in all colors and variation with erect or floppy ears; however a typical IN Dog usually will have erect ears, a wedge-shaped head and a tail that curls over its back. Most IN Dogs are similar in appearance to other prehistoric dogs like the Australian Dingos.<br/><br/><br/>We have successfully rescued, rehabilitated and fond homes for well over 100 IN dogs throughout the Northeast United States and more recently in the West coast.<br/>Please visit our Face book page to see the IN dogs adopted through our rescue.<br/>http://www.facebook.com/RescueWithoutBorders<br/>Please visit the following website to get more info on this breed-<br/>http://indog.co.in/<br/>http://indianpariahdog.blogspot.in/search/label/aboriginal%20dogs<br/>http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/pariahdog.htm
