LUCY

Hi! My Name Is LUCY

I'm Available

Lucy is about 1-1/2 years old and came to us as an owner surrender.  Nice retired couple helped their son by taking Lucy in when she was too rambunctious for his young family. She joined their home with a senior beagle in residence.  After some time they realized that Lucy, being a young active Boxer, needed more than they felt they could provide. They reached out for us to find her an active home with boxer experience to allow her to fully engage in life and live her life to the fullest.  She has puppy energy with a side of chill. She has basic commands down pat and is very treat driven to learn more.  She walks well on leash and is very playful.  At home she was a bit too playful for the grandkids who often were knocked down unintentionally. She can get sassy which is why her humans need to be good leaders. Lucy just loves life in a big way. 

She is pretty calm at BRLA, not demonstrating any anxiety or fears.  She lived with another dog without conflict and is making new friends at BRLA. She does require a proper introduction as can be a bit defensive when meeting new dogs, but is gaining confidence with every social encounter at BRLA. She would also be fine as the only dog with lots of human engagement.  She will need owners that are good leaders  with training experience that understand good routines create great dogs!  And to  continue building her confidence.  She was mostly outside at previous home and slept in a crate in the garage. She is a very happy girl and is ready to find the right home to enjoy a fantastic life. 

 

**NOTE** From experience and for safety: We do not place a female into a home with another already in residence**
