Lucy, aka Lucy van Pelt, is a black female born February 12, 2016. Her sire is Wheres Pedro and her dam is Bella’s Fancy. Lucy ran 90 races before coming to GALT. She is good with children. She should not live with cats.
Lucy is a very sweet and affectionate girl. She would love to be on the couch curled up right beside you.
Even though Lucy is chronologically a senior, she is very young at heart with plenty of energy to spare. She loves ALL the toys, stuffies, tennis balls and anything else that seems fun to play with and chase. She could easily be an only dog so there is no competition for those toys although she lives in a house with 3 other dogs. She is not aggressive towards them when they play.
She is not a barker so she would work well in an apartment. Her love language is snuggle. Lucy cannot live with cats.
