My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A Tail of the Good, the Not So Good, and the Ugly

The Good…

Lucas is a puppy mill survivor.  He is a handsome, white with liver spotting 6-8 year old IG.  Lucas is affectionate and wants nothing more than to be with you.  He loves to sit next to you on the sofa and makes a great lap warmer. He walks well on a leash and is crate trained.  He gets along with large and small dogs and is cat safe. 

The Not So Good…

Due to his years of living in a small, crowded cage, Lucas is afraid of big, open spaces, especially outdoors.  He usually has to be carried outside and will run back indoors if you leave the door open.  He will stay close to you while he is outdoors.  Potty training is a work in progress—he is about 80-85 percent reliable if kept on a schedule.  Lucas takes medication to help with his anxiety.

Lucas has come a long way since he was rescued from the puppy mill.  He still has the scars, but has made slow, but steady progress. 

The Ugly…

Lucas is one of the lucky ones who made it out of a puppy mill alive.  There are still hundreds of thousands dogs (and cats) who are trapped in a hell on earth.  Each of us can do something to help those still suffering in the mills.  Call a rescue group today and ask what you can do to help.

Lucas has a lot of love to give and will make a wonderful companion for someone who has a lot of love to give back and a lot of patience to help him continue on his journey to become a loving member of a loving home.  He is being fostered in San Antonio.
