    Abita is Looking For:   Her forever home! This sweet, sweet girl is eagerly looking forward to having her own humans for sniffy walks and all the adventures they can dream up. And snuggles at the end of a fun day together. Quality kibble and a cushy dog bed are on her wish list as well. But you know what she wants most of all? To know she's safe and loved.

     

    What Shelter Staff Say About Abita: Abita spent some time on the Dogs Playing For Life Canine Center campus in Florida. There, she received basic training and enrichment, and socialized with other dogs. 

    Abita worked on the Sit and Place commands there. She also worked on loose leash walking and sitting at open doors, waiting to be released to go out. She also got to play with enrichment toys such as food-filled Kongs and food puzzles. She enjoyed playing in group with her dog buddies and was good with dogs who needed a little help socializing with others. 

    What My Foster Says About Me: Abita is friendly with people and other dogs, and likes to play. She is high energy in play and on walks, but once activities are done, she'll settle in the house peacefully. She sleeps overnight in the crate, and after a little time to settle, has done fine in the crate when I leave my apartment. She hasn't had an accident in my place, and is smart, food-motivated and trainable. She has benefited from a stable home environment and her sweet personality is really starting to shine!

    Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
