Lucy is ready for a forever home

Lucy is a gorgeous 7 year old red Shar Pei who has spent 9 months in foster care learning how to be a happy member of her human foster family. She’s ready for her forever home now and would like a family with no other pets and no young children. In spite of years of abandonment alone in her former owner’s backyard, Lucy loves life, has a great sense of humour, and is a warm, affectionate dog with those she knows. She is well-mannered around the house, rides perfectly in the car, and loves to go everywhere with her people. She doesn’t mind staying at home on her own sometimes but the best part is her happy dance when her people return!

A healthy, energetic, youthful Shar Pei, Lucy loves her walks and likes to zoom around the yard but at night her favourite thing is to curl up in bed with her humans. She’s very smart, quick to learn, and loves to communicate her views with special grunts and snorfles. Lucy is a joy to live with though she needs to continue working on ignoring other dogs on her walks. A home with a well-fenced yard is essential so this energetic dog can give herself lots of exercise in a safe environment.
