Lucy - Fox Terrier and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Hobart, Indiana

Lucy!

This cutie came in as a stray with her equally adorable sister. They were both a tad underweight and their skin was in need of some TLC. They spent a couple of weeks in foster together. Now they are ready to find their new homes!

According to their foster mom, "Ethel is very playful and a bit nervous at times, she has warmed up so much! Lucy is very mellow and such a snuggle bug. Ethel is the instigator.
They do not like the collars but they tolerate the harnesses. They finally are getting the hang of toys and potty training. Even starting to give cues like standing by the door or barking when they want to go outside but we are still using puppy pads and they are very good about going on the pads rather then the floor.
They are also very good about getting into the crate when told."
