My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
A20944 Lucas is a smoke colored, approximately 10-year-old, neutered male, Labrador/Husky mix. He entered the shelter as an owner surrender on 7/13/2024 due to the fact they were no longer able to care for him. Lucas is very anxious and scared here at the shelter. Our staff says he is making progress but still unsure about the shelter environment. He gets nervous when you handle his head and mouth area. Our staff thinks he may do better with no small children due to that. Lucas will need an adopter who has patience and can provide him with time to decompress and get used to a new life. If you believe this can be you, please ask to visit with me!
