Jenna - Living the Lucky Pup Life!
Thomas - Rescue Dog Role Model!
Handsome Thomas - Adopted March 2008 |
Lovely Lexie!
Beautiful Lexie - Adopted March 2009 |
I received an urgent call one Sunday in 2009 asking if we could take in an emergency foster. When I picked Lexie up that afternoon, it was clear she was a very nervous young dog. but she quickly settled in once she learned that none of our dogs were going to hurt her and that she had to follow the house rules. Little did we know that she was snuggling into our hearts and that we would be the ones to adopt her!
Since Lexie came to our family, she has helped with around 60 fosters that have come through our house while waiting to find their own homes. She is very playful with adults and puppies, but is also a good role model in teaching the young ones what to do (and what not to do!). Lexie has a very playful spirit and is a joy to have around. She quickly discovered how warm it is under the bed covers and we just can’t resist indulging her. Lex likes to chase the birds out of the yard and can make it to the back fence in a split second. She is a very smart little gal, but on the other hand is a bit stubborn. She will grumble a bit when told to get off the bed, but she never takes it any farther. We have been lucky to have had Lexie join our household and she will continue to help more fosters through all of her years with us!

A Mama and Pup Story
Frankie and Chloe |
Frankie has been such an amazing addition to our family. She has brought so much joy and excitement to our lives. She loves running on the beach and digging holes in the sand. She recently learned how to swim in the ocean and now we can’t keep her out of the water. Frankie loves to go hiking in the summer and snowshoeing with us in the winter. She LOVES to run and she is super fast. Her favorite place to go is Happy Tails daycare. She LOVES playing with other dogs and showing the rookies the ropes.
Two years after adopting Frankie, we were introduced to her mother, Chloe. We fostered her and it wasn’t long until we fell in love with her, and ended up adopting her two months later. Chloe loves to cuddle and craves any attention you give her. You can tell she is so grateful to be a part of our family. Contrary to her daughter, Chloe prefers the company of people instead of dogs. She will go up to complete strangers and just sit in front of them and want them to pat her. Chloe recently got into weight pulling and placed 1st in the beginner’s class and 2nd in her weight class.
Chloe and Frankie love to play together and wrestle. Chloe came to us and didn’t really know how to play with other dogs or toys. Frankie has showed her everything she knows and it’s so cute to see Chloe do the same things Frankie does. It’s not often that a daughter teachers her mom. We can’t thank Lucky Pup enough for giving us not one, but two, amazing dogs.
