A Little Lap Dog Full of Life and Love

Lucky, (known as George in foster), is a 2-year-old Chihuahua cross who has truly stolen the hearts of everyone who meets him. He came to Many Tears from a home, through no fault of his own, after his previous owner sadly became too unwell to care for him. Despite all the recent changes, this sweet little lad has shown incredible resilience and joy. Lucky arrived missing part of one leg, as you can see by the photos. He does have a little paw where a leg should be, but he does not use it and this doesn't bother him and gets around very well.

Now thriving in foster care, Lucky has proved himself to be a loving, playful, and happy soul. He weighs just under 3kg and may be small in size, but he’s full of character and energy. Though he may only have three working legs, that doesn’t slow him down one bit. He can jump onto the sofa, dash around the garden, and even manage the stairs (although he’s still working on the coming down part!). His little limb doesn’t seem to bother him at all, and he’s more than capable of enjoying life to the full.

Lucky absolutely adores the company of other dogs and plays beautifully with his foster siblings, so much so that even the older dogs have joined in his games. He would love a home with at least one or two small to medium-sized canine companions who enjoy a good play session and can match his bubbly energy. Because of his size, large breeds wouldn’t be suitable for him.

He’s not yet comfortable with walks and the outside world, so his perfect home will have a big, secure garden where he can explore, play, and sniff at his own pace. With time, he may grow in confidence, but for now, his garden is his adventure zone.

Lucky is a proper little lap dog too. He loves snuggling on the sofa and will make a wonderfully loyal companion. Because he can sometimes feel unsure, he would be best suited to an adult-only home where life is calm and he can settle at his own pace.

If you have a dog who has recently lost a friend and is feeling a bit lonely, Lucky could be just the cheerful little spark to bring joy back into their life.

This lovely boy has so much love to give and is waiting for a kind, understanding family who will cherish him for the gem he is.
