Lucy ~ 9 month old Kelpie X (on trial 11/11/19)

Hi! My name is Lucy. I am a 9 month old beautiful black, white and tan Kelpie X. Due to no fault of my own I have come into care and am looking for my new forever home.

I am a very happy and sociable girl who loves lots of cuddles and playing with my foster brother Busta (Rottweiler) and sister Pippa (Labrador).

I love running around in the yard, playing fetch, swimming in the lake and playing chaseys and wrestles with my siblings.

Since I am still a pup I really enjoy being active throughout the day and would love my new owner to take me exploring with frequent walks and socialisation with other doggos. I have a big heart that loves to be shown lots of love and attention, I may take a little to warm up to at first but once I do I will forever be your loyal companion.

I am very well behaved and only bark to alert my foster parents if a stranger arrives at home. But other than that, I am pretty chilled out doggo who is happy to independently do my own thing but also just as much loves playing with my siblings.

On walks I can be very excitable initially but I get into the groove and calm down once we are out and about. I am sometimes unsure of other dogs until I warm up to them but never am I aggressive, just a little shy.

I’m an outside dog however I do sleep on my doggy bed inside the shed with my siblings of a night-time. When I do go inside with my humans for cuddles I am toilet trained and notify by sitting at the back door when I need to use the toilet.

I really love my food and at breakfast/dinner time! I am very patient and even though I am super excited I compose myself and will sit until my humans put my food in front of me and then its go time!

I am great in the car and will lay down until we reach our destination. I don’t get car sick and have never had any accidents in the car.

In summary, I will be best suited to a medium to high level activity couple or family who are willing to put in the time and effort I deserve. I am happy to be an outside dog but would love a family who can give me a sibling to play with so I don’t get lonely.
