Hi I'm Lucy! I'm a saluki mix from Qatar. I love to go for walks with my people and spend time with them at home. I'm doing well in the city and would be happy in an apartment setting or in the suburbs with yard. I've been dealing with some skin allergies so I need the long-term support of a grain-free diet and occasional medications. I'm looking for a forever home that is comfortable helping me manage my allergies and can provide the food and medications needed to help keep me feeling healthy and happy.

You'll often find me lounging on the bed or couch enjoying some quiet time in my crate or playing with my favorite toys. I absolutely adore going for leisurely strolls around the neighborhood taking in all the scents and sights and of course receiving affection from the people I love. Oh and did I mention I have a soft spot for tasty treats and even carrots? Yum!

While I may take a little time to warm up to other dogs once I'm comfortable I'm a great companion. I do best with 1:1 play time with other dogs or with dogs that don't play too rough.

I'm well-mannered and respond to my name and basic commands like a pro. Plus I'm perfectly content with moderate exercise—I prefer to take my time and smell the roses so to speak. I love pets but I'm not a velcro dog and will chill in my own space while you work from home.

Now about my eating habits I can be a bit of a picky eater. Sometimes I need a little coaxing to dig in but I'll usually come around eventually. I'm crate trained and have no issues holding my bladder for up to 6 hours. I usually do my business once a day and I'm pretty reliable with that. While I don't require a yard I do appreciate a good walk. And when it comes to vocalizing I'm as quiet as can be.

In terms of compatibility I'm good with kids and other dogs, but I prefer older considerate kids and careful introduction to small children. Overall I'm a gentle intelligent and affectionate companion who would make a fantastic addition to any loving family.

My foster guardian says: “Lucy is a sweet gentle dog who has clearly spent many years being a loved pet in a family home. She is extremely well trained and well mannered responds to her name and basic commands and is comfortable in her crate if you need to go anywhere. She loves lounging on soft surfaces and receiving affection from people who loves her.”

Likes: Consistency and route; lounging; quiet time in my crate; playing with toys; going on walks; affection; treats; carrots

Dislikes: Sharing space (takes some time to warm up to new people/animals)

My ideal home: Lucy would like a home that can give patience with her food sensitivities. Lucy prefers to hang with her people over other dogs but with proper intros she has done well with other dogs of similar size and energy. She'd be happy as the only pup in the home but can adjust to sharing her space and people and has lived with other dogs in the past. Overall she can adapt to a variety of settings.
