Lucy has been spayed and is now current on all vet care. She is 5 months old and ready to move to a forever home of her own. Lucy is a very timid girl and she relies on the other two dogs in her foster home. A requirement for Lucy is a male dog that can continue to help her build her confidence. She will also need a securely fenced yard. Lucy is not yet at a point where she is comfortable doing leash walks. She loves to play, to fetch, and to do zoomies in her yard. Lucy’s foster mom reports that she is one of the sweetest dogs she has ever met. Lucy just loves to be with her family. Because she has a lot of puppy chewing at this time and loud noises make her nervous, a home with older kids might be best. Lucy now knows to go to the door and she is almost fully housebroken. We would love to find Lucy a patient home where she can continue to work on her socialization.

Lucy is doing very well in her foster home. She loves being around the two children, who are 7 and 13 years old. Lucy seems to feel very safe and loved around them. It will take some time for her to build her confidence, but her two boxer foster brothers are already helping with that! Her foster family reports that Lucy is a very loving girl and she is going to be a great addition to a lucky family who has the patience and time for socialization. We are in the process of getting Lucy the vet care that she needs, and then she will be ready for a forever home of her own.

We were contacted by a breeder who was no longer able to care for several puppies.  Lucy was a puppy who did not sell from their previous litter.  Thanks to the quick action of several volunteers, we were able to get all of the puppies into foster homes. Lucy will be turning 4 months old in just a few days.  She has never been out of her previous home and away from her parents.  Lucy is a timid girl who would benefit from a patient family and a male dog in the home to help build her confidence and socialization.  Please make sure your home is a good match for a puppy this age before submitting an application. Lucy will need somebody home often to work on her house training and socialization. She will need an active family that is willing to make a lifelong commitment for him.  The resident dog should be able to appreciate the energy and antics of a young puppy.

We will be reviewing all applications and looking for homes that understand and meet the needs of a boxer puppy.  Lucy is currently fostered in Virginia. We will continue to provide updated pictures and information about her progress in her foster home.
