Pet of the Week: Lucy!

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Join us at Prime News at 7 to meet this week’s Pet of the Week: Lucy!

Meet 3-year-old Lucy: part Lab, part Poodle, part Golden Retriever, part Shar Pei, part Pointer… her unique DNA mix makes for a one-of-a-kind masterpiece with a scruffy little face, a perfectly round body, an oversized snoot, and the kind of quirky charm that makes everyone who meets her smile.

She’s become a favorite among our staff and volunteers, and currently serves as the Animal Care Manager’s office dog because she’s just that easy to love.

Lucy may be a little shy when meeting new people, but underneath that bashful exterior is an incredibly sweet, gentle, and submissive girl who simply wants to be close to her people.

She’s a professional snuggler, an expert nap enthusiast, and the ideal companion for someone looking for a low-key best friend.

While she enjoys short walks and occasional playful bursts, Lucy’s true passion is lounging. She especially enjoys dipping her toes in the water or relaxing in a kiddie pool, though she’d much rather soak than swim.

Lucy is wonderfully housebroken, has excellent house manners, and is happiest when she can hang out nearby while you work, watch TV, or simply exist together. She can be a little clingy in the sweetest way possible, but she’s also content spending some time on her own.

Lucy can be selective about other dogs and may prefer soaking up all the love as the only pet in her forever home. Because she’s sensitive and appreciates a calm environment, she’d likely do best in a home with older children or teens.

If you’ve been searching for a quirky-looking couch companion with a heart of gold, a big nose made for boops, and a PhD in relaxation, Lucy might just be your perfect match.
