My story

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

big shaggy pup ISO fresh start and love!

BUDDY NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name: Buddy        Best Guess for Breed:   Sheepdog and poodle mix

Best Guess for Age:   2 years as of January 2025         SEX:  Male

 

Approximate Weight:  52 lbs

 

Gets Along With:    Other dogs! We haven't seen this pup with cats or kids but he can be tested if you have them.

 

Currently Living at:   South Carolina shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to escape.

 

Buddy is Looking For:  His forever home! This sweetie along with his sister Gingie and their mama Mindy landed in the shelter through no fault of their own. He's closed that chapter and is eager to get his new one. The one where he gets his own humans. Where he gets to go on long sniffy walks in the neighborhood, meeting new pup and people pals - and explore the rest of the world! He has all that awesome young-dog energy and needs plenty of opportunities to burn that off. Quality kibble and a cushy dog bed are on his wish list as well. And - see that coat? It's a very high maintenance coat, requiring daily brushing and regular professional grooming. He came into the shelter severely matted - and mats hurt! He'd like humans who get it and take good care of his coat. 

But you know what he wants most of all? To be safe and loved for all his days. In exchange, he promises adoring gazes and loyal companionship. What do you say? Does that sound like a good trade to you? 

What My Foster Says About Me:   We will update this once this pup has arrived in the DC area and spent some time in foster care.

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.

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.
