My story

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

Please contact Diane Pedulla (dianep@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet girl ISO fresh start and love!

CALLIE NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name:   Callie        Best Guess for Breed:  Chihuahua and Jack Russell terrier mix

Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of November 2024         SEX:   female

 

Approximate Weight:  12 lbs as of 11/22/24; she's a bit underweight at that weight

 

Gets Along With:   Callie does well with other dogs. We haven't seen her with cats but she can be tested. 

We would be cautious placing Callie in a home with children under 12 years old because young kids can often scare small breed dogs with their level of energy or noise.  Children would need to be supervised closely to ensure their interactions with the dog are calm and gentle in nature.  We would be happy to discuss this more in depth with any applicant.

 

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:  When Callie arrived in the shelter, she was scared and shut down. However, she has been making great strides. We think Callie 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.

Callie is Looking For:  Her forever home! This sweet mama did a great job of raising her babies Jack Frost, Jingle, Jolly, Jovial, Joy, Jubilee, and Jumping Bean to be great family pets, and they're off to get their own homes. She's now looking for her own humans so she can transfer all that love and affection to them!

Callie is a young girl who hasn't seen enough of the world and is eager to explore it by the side of her humans. Sniffy walks - romps in parks - all the adventures they can dream up - yes, please! Quality kibble and a cushy dog bed (maybe yours will do?) are on her wish list as well.

But what she wants most of all is to know she's safe and loved and under her own roof. What do you say? Is this small, pretty girl the companion you have been seeking?

What My Foster Says About Me:   We will update this once she has arrived in the DC area and spent some time with her foster

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

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.
