Meet Lucy, a goofy gal who is looking to wiggle her way into a loving home. Lucy was surrendered to us at no fault of her own and is now on the lookout for a place to spend her golden years. She is a spunky young hearted girl who loves her walks and can chase a tennis ball forever. Although she loves toys, snuggles are her favorite - she loves to rub against your legs to get all the pets. Lucy came in with some hair loss on her hind end - suspected flea allergy - but with some flea meds it seems to be clearing up! She will need regular flea meds to ensure she can keep that luscious coat and be as comfy as possible. Due to her hind end being exposed, she has had a past of being sensitive to touch there, so will need a patient adopter who can respect her boundaries and help her healing. If affection is what you're looking for, consider meeting with Lucy - she will not disappoint with her amazing flop asking for belly rubs.
If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
