Description:

Lady Luck is an incredibly sweet dog! Her foster family have taken to calling her Mouse, because she's just a little country mouse who's found herself in the city...and she's not too sure about cities yet. Her fosters live in Lowertown St. Paul, and have determined that she would much prefer a quieter neighborhood where she's not immediately overwhelmed by traffic noise as soon as she steps outside. Buses and trains are a bit much for her little nervous system!

She is fully housetrained; she and her foster sister go out about 3 times per day on a schedule, so we haven't seen much by way of cues when she needs to go out, but she has seemed to indicate a need to go out by walking toward the front door and crying. She goes into her crate willingly when it's time for bed (treats help - she loves her nightly Greenie!), and will sleep quietly through the night. During the day, she's been totally content to sleep next to one of her foster humans while they work. She's still figuring out toys - tennis balls seem to be the top contenders.

Her confidence outside is helped by a Thundershirt, and also by her foster sister's presence (she's fine with other dogs, particularly if they're willing to help show her the ropes of a new space). Inside, she hasn't needed the Thundershirt - she slept through fireworks.

If you win her trust, she'll lean into you, rest her little head in your hands or your lap, and greet you with the wiggliest butt you've ever seen (her little docked tail wags the whole dog when she's excited)! Anyone would be lucky to share a home with little Lady Luck!

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
