My story

Courtesy post: Meet Lu: A Loyal and Energetic Companion in Need of a New Home. Contact Shelby at 410-371-3883. Lu is a 6-year-old, 45-pound, smart, and loyal dog who is very sweet to the people she loves. Despite missing one of her back legs, she doesn't require any extra care and it doesn't slow her down at all. Lu loves being outside as much as possible, but she loves being around her people even more. She enjoys chasing tennis balls and playing with toys all day long. While she has lots of energy, she also likes to lounge around and nap for a good part of the day. Lu is house-trained, although she may have accidents if left alone for long periods unless she is put in her crate. Typically, she is crated when left home alone or at night if she is not confined to the bedroom. Lu is not good around new people and should be kept on a tight leash if there is a chance of her being around someone new. With the help of treats and toys, she can warm up to new people, but she does not like chaos and loud noises, so she should be kept away from children when they are playing or roughhousing. She also tries to attack cars and bikes, so she needs to be kept on a tight leash during walks. Lu gets along well with some dogs but can be aggressive toward smaller dogs. She knows her basic commands and is very smart. If you are good with training dogs and have time to work on her behaviors, she will be a loving and loyal companion. Details: Age: 6 Weight: 45 pounds (vet appointment today at 4:30 for exact weight) Location: Phoenix, Baltimore County Contact Info: Shelby 410-371-3883 Note: Lu had one bite incident where the skin was barely broken. The gentleman was wearing thick carpenter pants, which took most of the blow. Lu was adopted from a farm in the middle of nowhere, Alabama, along with her sister, who was adopted by a friend. If you think you can provide Lu with a loving home and the training she needs, please reach out to Shelby at the provided contact information. ***Disclaimer*** Unfortunately, there are not enough rooms at the inn to admit every dog that needs a furever home. But, we still want to help those dogs (and cats) on their journey! By courtesy posting, AAHA is offering our website/network as an additional resource to help an owner or shelter gain additional exposure for the dog they are trying to place. AAHA has not met nor evaluated the dog (or cat) we are courtesy posting. AAHA makes no representation about courtesy posted pets including the health and temperament and accepts no liability in this exchange. Arrangements for adoptions are made between the caretaker of the pet and the potential adopter.
