Lucas

Meet Lucas! A delightful 3-year-old Lab/Shepard mix with a big heart and a loving nature. Once you've earned his trust, he'll be your steadfast companion through thick and thin. Lucas is a sweet soul who is playful yet affectionate. He is neutered, up to date on shots, and healthy. Lucas is well-behaved in the home, house-trained and sleeps through the night. He will be a loyal companion to any loving family. Lucas is seeking a home where he can feel safe and secure. He requires slow introductions to dogs and new people, and it is critical that his family help facilitate this for visitors, new people, and new dogs. While Lucas may be hesitant around new faces, he forms deep and lasting bonds with both humans and dogs. He is currently being fostered with two female dogs and doggie daycare has helped him learn to appreciate and socialize with other dogs and humans. He is great with children and has interacted lovingly with children beyond the age of 7. He is not cat tested. Lucas loves his routine and never tires of his favourite leash-free dog park and visiting his dog friends at the local park near his foster mom's home. Lucas has the run of his foster home. He has a dog bed but prefers to snooze and cuddle with his humans on the couch. Lucas is a smart boy who needs enrichment of both his mind and body. Daily time to run in a fenced area and long walks are musts for Lucas. He would do well with a companion dog of equal playfulness and energy as he loves to wrestle and play with his foster sisters. Puzzles, toys, and Nyla bones when at home help his mind busy and tire him out. Lucas walks well on lead and understands basic commands such as sit, wait, "let's go" and "touch". He is very food motivated and this will help with his continued training.
