Lucky - In Foster Care


Name: Lucky
Age: Estimated 1 year
Breed: Unknown, but looks like he has Boxer in him
Sex: Male (not altered)
Location: Tulsa, OK area

Vet Info: Lucky has not been vetted.  His caregiver says that he has skin allergies and itches.  Lucky weighs about 40 pounds.

Owner Info: Lucky is a precious boy with a sad story.  Someone had thrown a whole litter over a bridge and into a creek.  Lucky's caregiver saved the litter with the intention of finding them safe homes.  She was able to find the others homes, but has not been able to find Lucky a home because he's blind.  He's now a year old and in desperate need because they are moving and cannot take him.  Lucky needs rescue before July 27th. Lucky is an outdoor dog with a fenced yard, he is not housebroken or leash trained, but Lucky knows the command Sit!  Lucky is described as outgoing, and is good with people of all ages, male and female dogs, and cats.  He currently lives with a dog and cat.   Lucky is completely blind.  Lucky's caregiver thinks he might "see shadows or light changes, but cannot actually see." Lucky is not possessive of toys, treats, or food and has never bitten or snapped.  The only time Lucky has ever shown aggression is when the other dog bites Lucky as he runs by. Lucky is a friendly fellow, and his caregiver writes that he welcomes new dogs into his yard with a wagging tail!  "He just wants to be loved."   She adds that, "...we are running out of time. We have to move and can't take him with us. If we can't find him a home, our choices will be sad."


Update 7/25/15: We've heard from Lucky's caregiver, and she is able to keep Lucky until Thursday, August 6th.  She is grateful for our help and thanks us very much!  However, if no home is found by then, he will be humanely euthanized.
