My story

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

Please contact Chandler Jaffe (chandler.jaffe@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.is sweet puppers. is not Jedi Knight.

LUKE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!


Name:
 Luke          Best Guess for Breed:   Retriever and pointer mix

 

Best Guess for Age:  7 months as of September 2024            SEX:    Male

 

Estimated Weight:    30 lbs as of 9/4/24; he is still growing.

 

Gets Along With:  Dogs! We haven't seen him with cats yet but he can be tested. We would be cautious placing him in a home with children under 12 years old because young kids can often scare shy dogs with their level of energy or noise.

 

Currently Living at:  Lucky Dog's South Carolina rescue campus - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!

 
Special Adoption Considerations: Luke needs to go to a home with a resident dog to help him gain more confidence. We would be cautious placing him in a home with children under 12 years old because young kids can often scare shy dogs with their level of energy or noise.  Children would need to be supervised closely to not leave doors open and should never walk the dog without an adult holding the leash.  We would be happy to discuss this more in depth with any applicant.

 

Luke is Looking For:  His forever home! This boy is barely out of puppyhood and has all that awesome young-dog energy he'd like to burn playing with his humans, exploring his new neighborhood, and making new pup pals at the local parks. Exploring all the toys would be great too, as well as quality kibble and a cushy dog bed, and going to dog school to show how super smart he is.


What My Foster Says About Me: Luke has a sweet disposition and a gentle curiosity; he greets everyone with lots of kisses! He is timid but just need a little time to warm up to his environment. He does great on walks around the park and enjoys playing with toys in and out of his crate. He's been great with our resident dog and neighbor dog! He also enjoys playing with other dogs at the park- including playing tug of war. He is really great at matching the energy of the foster’s dog.

 
Luke loves to learn and train, and picks things up quickly - he knows to sit before crossing a street and is currently working on “down”. He does well in his crate and has made amazing progress with potty training!

 

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT:       The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
