Story
young girl looking for her forever family! WINNIE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Winnie        Best Guess for Breed:  Boxer and Border Collie mix Best Guess for Age:   8 months as of Feb. 2025          SEX:    Female   Approximate Weight:   30 lbs as of February 2025; she is still growing   Gets Along With:   Other dogs! She has also lived with a cat and done well. We are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! We haven’t seen Winnie with kids but she can be tested!   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home   Winnie is Looking For:   Winnie is a young, playful Boxer mix with a gorgeous white and brindle coat that makes her stand out in a crowd! This sweet girl is full of life and love, always ready for an adventure or a cuddle session on the couch. She’s a smart pup who’s eager to learn, making her a great candidate for training and fun activities like hiking or agility.  She gets along well with other dogs and would love a playful pup sibling, but she’d be just as happy soaking up all the attention as the only dog in the home. Winnie is looking for a family that will give her the love, structure, and playtime she deserves. What My Foster Says About Me: Winnie is doing amazing. She's very sweet and very friendly. She will literally roll over on her back for you to rub her tummy all the time. She's very sweet with cats too like she won't get too excited if they don't like it and will keep her space. She was actually a bit scared of my cat hahaha. But she's genuinely a sweetheart. She has a lot of energy and loves playing with toys and chew toys but will also go out for a little bit and want to go home and she sleeps a lot and is very calm in the house so she's the perfect mix of energetic and calm! 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.
