PATTY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!
Come meet Patty and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (Nov. 24th) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Silver Spring (12020 Cherry Hill Rd, Silver Spring, MD 20904)!
Name: Patty Best Guess for Breed: Terrier and Lab mix
Best Guess for Age: 11 months as of November 2024 SEX: Female
Approximate Weight: 35.8 lbs as of 9/24/24; might have just a bit more to grow.
Gets Along With: Patty does well with other dogs and cats and has lived with dogs and cats in foster care. Patty lives with kids in foster care and does very well with them.
Currently Living at: DC area foster home

Special adoption considerations: After being rescued from the streets, she was very scared and shut down. However, she has been making great strides. We think Patty would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure she can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to continue to build confidence.
Patty is unique in that, like many white animals, she is deaf. This will require some alternative training techniques that involve visual cues. As with any dog, training a deaf dog takes time and patience. There are some ways in which deaf and hearing dogs learn quite similarly. Repetition, reward, and consistency remain the pillars of success. She also may startle more easily. This is a congenital abnormality and should have no medical impact on her.
Patty is Looking For:
Meet Patty, a sweet 9-month-old female with a soft white coat with tan accents! She is one of a litter of five - Padma, Panda, Patty, Peeps - who all came up from a Puerto Rico shelter to find their forever homes here. Patty may be deaf, but that doesn't stop her from being an affectionate and playful companion. She has a curious spirit and loves exploring her surroundings, making every moment spent with her full of joy. Patty is currently in a shelter in Puerto Rico, where she has won the hearts of everyone with her gentle nature and eagerness to connect with people.
Being deaf doesn’t slow Patty down one bit—she’s ready to start learning hand signals. She thrives in a calm, patient environment and would do well with a family that is willing to continue her training and provide the love and attention she deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal and loving companion, Patty would make a perfect addition to your family!
What My Foster Says About Me: Amazing with kids! Does well with dogs. Sleeps all night and on car rides. Doing well with walks and does not pull. Working on potty training and very treat motivated. She does great with house guests and kids running around and just watches and sniffs people, no barking or jumping. Likes to chew on toys.
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, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog.
Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.
