Lucy American Staffordshire Terrier Chicago , IL

Hello there! My name is Lucy, and I’m a 2 1/2-year-old black and white Staffordshire terrier. I weigh a perfect 40 pounds, and I’m spayed.

I’m a pro at walking on a leash and I take corrections very well. I’m not fond of other dogs so I need to be the only dog in the home. I do absolutely adore children. I’ve been the best with all the kids in my foster home and playing with them is my favorite pastime.

My guilty pleasures? Oh, I have a few! I love shin bones slathered in peanut butter, and I can never resist a good game of tug with my rope toys or a fun fetch with sticks. Car rides are my jam, and if you’re wondering about my Thursday routine, it includes a special treat from McDonald’s – a cheeseburger happy meal that I just can’t get enough of!

I’m all about those butt scratches and cuddling up in your lap. While I haven’t been cat tested yet, I can be if you’d like. I was rescued from Memphis Animal Services right in the nick of time from being euthanized, and now I’m looking for my forever home where I can shower my people with love and protection. I may bark at strangers as I’m quite protective, but I’m all wags and smiles once they introduce themselves and pet me.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s amazing with people and ready to fill your life with joy, I’m your girl. I am in Burkesville, KY but can be transported to other states for the right adopter. Let’s meet and start our adventure together!
