My name is Lucy. I am 11 months old, blue in color and weigh 20 pounds. I need a new home because my owner became ill. I am being fostered in St. Charles, MO.

My human mom gave me the best care and a lot of love.
Since I spent my puppy life with a human mom and no other animals, I attach myself to the female human in the home. While I'm not attached to my foster dad or foster siblings, I do love to give them kisses. Giving kisses is my way of showing affection and I have lots of them to give. I give my foster siblings kisses in the morning to wake them up for school.

I can be around other animals but I'm not a playmate. I like to sit on the couch and chew on my toys. My foster mom says having chew toys is a must for my new home. I will play fetch throughout the day but it won't last long.

I like to be taken on walks. I have an interest that my foster mom hasn't seen before, jumping in and out of the bathtub and the shower, even if you are in it.

Since being at my foster home I have learned to use the doggy door and I was potty trained before coming here. This just shows I am quick at learning new things! I bark occasionally. I typically bark when startled by sudden talking when I am relaxed and snuggling. I'm your girl if you love doggy kisses, you have lots of love and chewing toys, and a little patience to train me on staying down.

The adoption process starts with an Online Adoption Application you can find at ''https://www.adoptaboston.com/adoption-application.

All our dogs are spayed/neutered (if six months and older), up to date on rabies and distemper, heartworm tested, and microchipped. Other medical needs diagnosed while in foster care are also treated prior to adoption.

MABTR requires a fenced in area from families who own their home, however we DO adopt to apartment complexes and communities where fences are not permitted due to leases and covenants. In these cases a leash law must be enforced. We do not accept invisible fencing.

MABTR only adopts to families residing in NE, CO, MO, KS, IA, WY, SD, ND, ID, UT, MT, MN, and NW AR due to the lack of volunteer support in other states, no exception even if you are willing to drive.
