Lucky - Hound Dog for Adoption in Neenah, Wisconsin

Meet Lucky!

At 2 years old and 80 pounds, Lucky is a big, goofy boy with an even bigger heart. He has a unique, quirky face that makes him extra memorable, and his story is just as special. Lucky was found as a young puppy after it was believed he had been hit by a car. After receiving medical care and making a full recovery, he was left with a noticeable scar on his face. It doesn't slow him down one bit and only adds to his charm!

Lucky's previous owner loved him dearly, but his youthful energy proved to be a little too much for the senior dog in the home and for their lifestyle. Now he's looking for a family that's ready to embrace his fun-loving spirit and zest for life.

Lucky's favorite things in life are toys, dog friends, and water! He loves to splash around in a kiddie pool and chase after toys, especially squeaky ones. Lucky absolutely loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. He's previously lived with a cat and did well, and we think he'd be a great fit for sturdy, dog-savvy children who can handle an enthusiastic greeting or two. When he first heads out for a walk, he's excited about everything and can pull on the leash, but after a few minutes, he settles in nicely and enjoys the adventure.

He's not just handsome; he's got some manners, too! Lucky is potty trained, does well being kenneled at night or while his people are away, and already knows a few basic commands. He's also an excellent travel buddy who rides well in the car, handles veterinary visits like a champ, and is an absolute superstar when it comes to nail trims.
