Story
Meet Lucy, a 9-year-old toy poodle with a heart full of love and a sweet, affectionate nature. Lucy is incredibly smart and has so much love to give, making her the perfect companion for someone who enjoys a deep bond with their pet. She's happiest when she's curled up on your lap, soaking up all the attention and affection she can get. Lucy is a loyal and protective companion, always keeping a watchful eye over her home and loved ones. Due to her protective nature, she is reactive towards other dogs and strangers, making her best suited for a calm and quiet home where she feels secure and has limited visitors [she has nipped strangers in the past, but is only a 10 lb pup]. Lucy has had challenges with her anxiety, and while she's made progress through training, she still needs an environment where she can truly relax. Her behavioral issues/aggression will require someone with patience who enjoys working with their dog - they will find her to be a wonderful partner in these pursuits.
