About LOVABLE LUCILLE

Border Terrier mix
Age: Puppy
Sex: Female

Sweet Lucille has been through a lot but is now adoptable and so so so ready for a happy furever after! Lucille came to us with a shortened and bowed radius which proved to be a carpal valgus deformity in her forelimb. Originally we thought she may lead a normal life with this deformity, but once taken to an expert we were told her quality of life would be much much better with amputation since the limb could not be fixed and the pain would have to be managed her entire life and she would have severe arthritis with it. Sweet Lucille is only just under a year old so we wanted to give her the very best chance at a long, happy, pain free life! She had a very hard hospital stay as after her amputation it was discovered that she also has Addison disease. She spent several days in icu fighting for her life and we are so so so grateful that she chose to fight and stay with us and is the happiest, sweetest girl today. Lucille is a playful, loving, happy 20 pound terrier mix. She is great with dogs and cats and loves playing with other animals! She would do best in a home where she can live with other pets she can play with and love on as well as stick to a routine. She will need to take medication and have her condition monitored for the rest of her life, but she is totally worth it! This sweet girl will absolutely make a positive impact on her new family's lives, and we cannot wait for her to find them! If you'd like to donate to Lucille's medical bills or help us to save other pups like her in the future, you can do so via PayPal (please send as friends and family! [email protected]). We are entirely volunteer based so every dollar donated goes right to the pups! Thank you as always for your wonderful support, and please consider sharing or putting an app in for this sweet love today!!
