Lucy (8/11)

How we found Lucy We have a mini Australian Shepard and had taken him to Animal Kind to get a tooth pulled. Since we were there I asked to see the boarding facilities for future use when we travel. When I go into the kennel I see Lucy there lying on a blanket. I started talking with Michelle and found out she was a rescue which was a huge surprise. Michelle let her out and she jumped right into my chest and bowled me over. (In more ways more than one) I knew she was the dog for us and immediately said “we’ll take her” At that point I called my wife (details, details) and she came down to meet Lucy and the result was the same. We took her home for a test weekend and she has been with us ever since. She is the perfect dog and gets along with Aussie so well. She fits right in and after a few training sessions she is just awesome. It’s amazing to think someone let this little girl go…what a mistake that was! Robert
