Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Lucky is a smart, sweet, gentle and loving 10-year-old, 28-pound Keeshond//Pomeranian-mix looking for a loving guardian.
Lucky absolutely loves his walks and car rides … he just lights up when you pull out his leash. He’s even good on road trips. In the home, he likes to be with you and stay by your side. He never goes on furniture or in your bed. Instead, he’ll sleep in his own dog bed right on the floor. He will however help himself to any edible treats he smells within his reach.
Lucky came to Friends of Petraits Rescue in February when his human passed away of cancer. Now it’s time for him to find a permanent loving guardian for his golden years.
He is protective of his food and bowl with other dogs and cats, so he is best as the only pet in the home and without children.
Lucky has very thick hair that needs to be professionally groomed at least a couple times a year.
He is perfectly housebroken, no crate needed, and non-destructive in the home.
He’s typically quiet, but he will bark for food, or attention when someone new visits the home.
Lucky is a happy and healthy senior. He is neutered, micro-chipped, up-to-date on rabies, distemper, leptospirosis, bordetella and the H3N2 canine flu vaccines. He is fecal and heartworm–tested, dewormed and on monthly heartworm protection.
Lucky has a slight heart murmur and had x-rays done to make sure his heart was not enlarged. He also had full bloodwork, urinalysis and even had a dental.
Lucky is currently being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood. His adoption fee of $250 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. Please contact friendsofpetraits@gmail.com for an adoption application.
