WILLOWY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Willowy          Best Guess for Breed:   Jack Russell terrier mix   Best Guess for Age:  2 years as of August 2026        SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:  21 lbs   Gets Along With:  Willowy does well with other dogs and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog. We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   DC area foster home     What My Foster Says About Me:     Willowy is such a silly, sweet dog! She LOVES other dogs and wags her tail at lightning speed for each new dog who comes into the dog park. She’s calm with new people and likes to investigate each one and will take pets and head scratches from everyone. When she’s done romping around the park, she finds a corner to sit in and calmly observes all the activity. She’s startled easily by sudden noises but she’s gaining confidence in the city by the day. At home she’s been very well-behaved - she trots around the house watching me and her foster sibling and then curls up somewhere cozy. When I’m working from home, her favorite spot is under my desk keeping my feet warm. She’s quiet in her crate and has been good with dog-savvy kids at the park and at events.      Check out this video of Willowy: https://youtube.com/shorts/OfIlK9em2ckSpecial adoption considerations:   Willowy was rescued from a hoarding situation in South Carolina.  She has not been well socialized with new people and has lived her whole life with other dogs.  New nosies, cars, bikes, and other things may create fear and anxiety.  She will need a patient adopter who can give her time to come out of her shell and learn that the world is a wonderful and welcoming place. And because she is shy, she needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog who will show her the ropes. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.    TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at      www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!
