A few months ago my neighbors, Mark and Angie, rescued an abandoned dog. Someone just left her to fend for herself. She was roaming around a local neighborhood all day apparently, and no one did anything -- that is until Mark and Angie came along. They bumped into her while they were out walking. And they did what dog-lovers do. They rescued her. Even though Mark and Angie already have a dog and can't take in another, they figured they could help her to safety. After a trip to the vet to have her checked out, they discovered that she was pregnant. Did you know that the humane society will not take a pregnant dog? Every resource they turned to for help could not (or would not) help them since Lucy was pregnant. So Mark and Angie did what they had to do. They took Lucy in, walked her everyday, fed her, and loved her. A few weeks later, Lucy gave birth to NINE puppies! It's been a couple of months since the puppies were born. Some have already left for homes or foster homes. Four remain with two of the four scheduled to go to a new home this weekend. These puppies are precious. If you are interested in a puppy, leave a comment here. I feel certain the pups will go fairly easily. Who doesn't love a cute, cuddly little puppy?
But that leaves Lucy needing a home. She is two or three years old and not very big. I would guess she weighs 35-40 pounds. She is smart and eager to learn and please. She has been through a lot, and now it's time for Lucy to find her permanent, loving home. If you can help Lucy, please post a comment here, and I will get you in touch with Mark and Angie.
