My personality

My story

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

Hey there! I'm Lucky! Lucky that I have a great foster family who has helped me become ready for a forever home! I've heard them describe me as the handsome pup with a serene personality and a face that's sure to melt your heart. I love snuggling up and being close to my favourite humans, and I'm always ready to listen and follow commands like the good boy I am.

Meeting new dog friends can be a bit overwhelming for me at first—I might let out some high-pitched screams because I get scared. But once I figure out that they’re not a threat, I jump right into playtime. With cats, I'm as cool as can be, and I absolutely adore kids, always being gentle and loving with them.

I've made great strides with my resource guarding of food, especially now that we’ve figured out my diet—no chicken for me, please. I'm a snuggle bug through and through, and I can't wait to bring my calm, loving energy into my forever home
