Sweet and playful 14-year-old Lucky was surrendered to a partner shelter due to a number of treatable conditions, including a UTI and ear infection. Despite not feeling his best, Lucky was as sweet as they come. We quickly learned that Lucky knew commands, seemed to be house trained, and loved everyone around him. He became a staff favorite over the next month that he stayed with us. While it can be hard to pass a dog in their kennel day after day, wondering when their person will come, we have all learned to trust the process. We knew Lucky had a perfect match coming, and we would enjoy our time with him while we could. Lucky’s new parents adopted him on Thanksgiving Eve, meaning he had a loving new family to spend the holiday with. His new parents told us that Lucky is fitting in perfectly, and that he loves his five new doggy siblings. 🥹 Happy endings like this are because of people like you, who give us the opportunity to give dogs like Lucky a second chance. We hope you’ll consider a donation to HSC this #GivingTuesday. Your support directly helps animals like Lucky. 💙
