My story

Please contact Diane Pedulla (dianep@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Exuberant Puppy Wishing To Be Your Dog's Wingman! COMET NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Comet and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (06/15) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church, VA (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)!   Name:  Comet          Best Guess for Breed:   Hound / Beagle   Best Guess for Age:   1 year as of  01/22/2025        SEX:    male   Approximate Weight:   35 lbs.   Gets Along With: Other dogs! He cannot go to a home with kids. Comet has not been seen with cats, but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home   Special Adoption Considerations: Comet is looking to be placed with a confident doggy wingman to share in many life adventures and help him experience all that life has to offer. He cannot go to a home with kids.   Comet is looking for his doggie ride or die. A four-legged best friend to share in every adventure so that together they can embrace all that life has to offer. Coming from the country backwoods, he refuses to let his past define him and is eager to learn from and mimic your dog's confidence and best behaviors. Comet has a wrestling play style, and is looking for a dog buddy that enjoys a good old fashioned throw down.    At a year-plus old, he’s full of energy and loves to run, explore, and follow scents (starting every day by running laps in his foster's backyard and wrestling with his dog foster siblings). Daily exercise is a must to keep this energetic boy happy and healthy.  Comet is at the perfect age for training, as he’s eager to learn and please his people. Using positive reinforcement and plenty of treats will help in teaching him commands and good behavior. Consistency is key. Hound dogs are known for their distinctive baying and barking. Comet would do best outside of an apartment as he is comfortable using his voice to share how he feels about the latest goings on in the neighborhood. What My Foster Says About Me: Comet is a young, energetic boy who needs the opportunity to play with other dogs. He's smart (already knows 'sit' and 'touch') and quickly makes friends with the help of a few yummy snacks. With proper love and support of both the human and canine variety, Comet's potential is unlimited. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog.   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.    BE A FOSTER!!!     Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs! To learn about fostering, please contact fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org! BE A SPONSOR!!!!     Sponsors help Lucky Dog support the many dogs we save. To learn more about sponsorship, please contact info@luckydoganimalrescue.org! June 12, 2025, 9:39 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Comet, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
