Currently Living at: DC area foster - Lance needs a forever home!

Woof! Hi there! I'm Lance. I'm not sure what happened to land me in a SC shelter, but I am so happy to be in the DC area to find my forever home. I'm looking for someone that will love and spoil all 50 lbs of me. They say I'm some type of heeler mix, and about 3 years old. All I know is that I'm a handsome dog and just want to hang out on the couch with you, but also go on some nice long walks and hikes, and even trips to the dog parks. 

Lance is not yet sure how he feels about cats and children, but he we do know he gets along well with other dogs. Like most shelter dogs, Lance may need a refresher on housetraining. He is likely crate trained.

Update from foster:

Lance is a total lovebug! He loves getting scratches and he follows us all around wagging his tail and looking up with the cutest doggy smile. When we go to work, he is content to sleep much of the day and hasn't had any accidents or tried to chew anything. When we come home, he's soooo happy to see us and is ready for a long walk and some play. Lance does great on the leash and is super friendly towards everyone (dogs and people) we meet. He loves trying to get his foster siblings to play with him, and is starting to learn how much fun dog toys can be!​ In the evenings, he's all about cuddles on the couch or relaxing at our feet. Lance is such a sweet boy!

He really is such a great boy! His future family is very lucky!

Lance has tested positive and is has been treated for Heartworm disease. Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites.  Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. 

The adoption fee for this dog is $450, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please download our Adoption Questionnaire and email it to Kyndra at kyndras@luckydoganimalrescue.org!
