About Lucy

Adoption Fee: $100
Miniature Pinscher / Jack Russell
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

This is Lucy. She is extremely loyal to her owner and loves to be with that person always. She was abandoned and near death when she was rescued and the owner did not want her back and surrendered her. She is now healthy and a very a happy dog but has issues with trust, she does not allow her feet to be touched or trimmed if forced she becomes fearful and will do anything (including biteing) to try to get away. She is not aggressive she is extremely loving towards people but when she is scared she does the only thing she knows how to do, fight for survival. Lucy shows signs of abuse, if you talk to loudly she will run and cower, if you get excited and try to pick her up she does not know the difference and will cower thinking you are trying to hit her. She has been around children from ages 1-5 with no issues, in fact if she feels the child is in danger even if she just met them she will protect the child. I've never had an issue with her getting upset or anxious around children and she prefers to be with children more then adults. She has an old unknown injury to her back leg that still bothers her when she does to much in a day, vet looked and took xrays the break is too old do anything now, the vet suspects the injury was caused by her getting hit by a car or from the abuse of the previous owners. She has not been spayed but will be required to be spayed if adopted or will be spayed before adoption. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
