About Lucy Lou
Meet Lucy Lou - the most gentle-natured girl❣️
Lucy’s journey is nothing short of incredible...
After escaping her home more than a year ago, this brave girl spent 12 long months surviving entirely on her own. It took patience, time, and a carefully set trap to finally bring Lucy safely into care.
Sadly, while Lucy was missing, her original family’s circumstances changed dramatically. They had to move away and navigate major life changes, and heartbreakingly, they are no longer in a position to take Lucy back.
Now eight years young, Lucy is ready for the next chapter of her life — a dedicated forever home where she can finally feel safe, settled and loved.
Despite everything she experienced during her year on the streets, Lucy has emerged as an incredibly chill, gentle and polite girl. What’s truly remarkable is how strongly she remains focused on people. When Lucy is around humans, she settles beautifully and turns her attention toward the people she loves, soaking up their affection and companionship.
She’s also been doing wonderfully on social outings with her carers. She has happily visited places such as Petbarn, enjoying the experience and all the attention that comes with it.
Because Lucy spent so long having to survive alone, she can become overwhelmed when approached by other dogs. For this reason, Lucy needs to be the only pet in her new home so she can feel completely safe, relaxed and secure.
What Lucy is looking for isn’t complicated: a quiet, loving home where she can decompress, enjoy the comforts of indoor life, and finally be the centre of someone’s world.
After everything she has been through, Lucy deserves nothing less than a beautiful forever home. ❤️
Could you be the person who gives this incredibly resilient girl the safe and loving future she has been waiting for?

Adoption details
We list animals for adoption on Pet Rescue as well as on our own Animals-in-Need-Brisbane website. We talk with people who contact about an animal to see what their needs and situation are. Our emphasis is on getting the right animal for the people and the right people for the animal. If everyone's needs are met things usually work out well.
If the situation sounds good we arrange a meeting. If all goes well we let people try the animal out for a couple of weeks to ensure that everyone is happy.
We keep records of all adopters, follow up to ensure all is well and undertake to take back any animal if circumstances change.
