About Lucie

Lucie is a bombshell with a smile that requires sunshades to not be blinded. �%A0 She is 4 years old and has the most beautiful pearly whites that have been very well taken care of. �%A0Lucie has a permanent cheeky wink! �%A0She lost her left eye to a foxtail that got in it and then ulcerated. �%A0It does not bother her one bit and she has learned to compensate by turning her head to see all the sights and using all her other senses well. �%A0 Lucie is a people lover and her tail goes a mile a minute anytime you say her name. She wants all the cuddles and the kisses! �%A0 Dogs she can give or take - she ignores them mostly. She is a little jealous of loving given to any dog that is not her and will try to edge her nose in for pets too! �%A0 She has lived with a cat and ignores them too. Lucie has been in a home where her foster mom has to work at a desk most the day and Lucie will curl up as soon as the door to the office opens and sleep there without stirring until it's time for a walk. �%A0However, there is gentle snoring. �%A0Lucie is on the portly side - 101lb, and the snoring likely comes from that. �%A0The good thing is she enjoys walks and walking is what will help her lose the weight and then likely the snoring will go too! �%A0A good mile a couple of times a day is a great start to get her into hiking shape. She pulls to get out the door, but then walks nicely on a leash and is eager to please. �%A0 She is also on a metabolic food that will kick start, and continue to help, getting her to a healthy weight - closer to 65lb. �%A0 Lucie sleeps all night long and is happy on a dog bed or the floor of your bedroom, but do not forget the kisses and cuddles before you settle down for the night. �%A0 She has learned the doggy door in her foster home, but she will find it much easier to get in and out once she loses some girth. Lucie has had no accidents at all in her foster home and will potty on command. �%A0Just show her where to go and she is a fast learner! �%A0Lucie knows sit, down, shake, high five, and likely some more tricks we do not yet know about. She is learning off as she can counter surf if something smells really good. She travels well in a car and will lay down. She is crate trained if needed, though it's not her favourite thing and again, at her weight it's likely not the most comfortable. Lucie is a gentle, friendly, happy girl who would be the perfect companion to anyone looking for the typical golden retriever. �%A0We think she would be good in a family with dog savvy children or your one and only.
