I had the pleasure of running into Lucy last weekend at the Blessing of the Animals on Guilford Green. What a sweetheart she is! As you can see, she has a rough past, but her future is nothing but bright!

Lucy’s background:

Lucy has survived the unimaginable. Used repeatedly as a breeding dog and then discarded to the streets of Colombia, she was found starving by a good Samaritan, her jaw and nose badly broken. A SFTH adopter and volunteer heard about her plight and arranged for her to fly to NY, where she has been receiving rehabilitation ever since. We had a specialist examine her, and although her facial bones never healed properly, she can eat, drink and has no pain whatsoever, so we decided not to put her through extensive and unnecessary surgery. Anyway, we think she’s beautiful the way she is! Lucy is great with people and she adores small dogs, probably because they remind her of the many puppies she’s had over the years. Her foster mom tells us that Lucy is very easy going and low maintenance. The only thing our little couch potato loves more than having a backyard to explore, is having a couch to come back to and nap on! Lucy is spayed 100% healthy, up to date on her shots. Please call Beth at 347 242 0459 you would like to adopt our Special Girl.

Lucy is currently in a wonderful foster home with her trainer in CT, not boarding (that was last year). We’re only going to adopt her out to a home in CT, NY, NJ, MA or PA. We’d prefer to keep her close so the person or family will be able to visit her a couple of times so they can get to know her and Lucy can get to know them. We’d like to adopt her out as the only dog or to someone with a well balanced small dog. And we would love for Lucy to have an enclosed backyard which she has now and LOVES!
