I have experience raising high-energy puppies through low-energy senior dogs with medical problems. I am an active person and make sure my own dog gets all of the activity she needs. Pets are family to me, and I will treat your pet as my own family (and I treat my family very well)! My dog was abandoned by her previous owners. While I will never know what happened to her in her past life, I do know for sure that she is a scared dog that needs lots of love. I have worked so hard to get her out of her shell and know first hand that progress is slow, but patience is a virtue. What I love most about her is that she is so great with other dogs! Meeting Lucy at the dog park, you would never know that she is timid- she runs and plays just like a "normal" dog. If you have a dog that has an unknown past, needs some extra gentle love, etc., I'm your girl! I am open to all walks of life and look forward to the opportunity to meet your dog! I do not currently have a yard, but we take Lucy (and your dog, too!) to the park for at least an hour of play every day. On the weekends, we always go on long hikes, so everyone gets plenty of exercise!
