These gals found their forever home on March 13, 2021!
Lucia and Ethel are a pair of sisters that love life! They are extremely dog friendly (get along great with resident dogs--alpha and omega), love kids (even the younger ones), and completely ignore cats. Similar to the slightly more famous Lucy and Ethel, Lucia is the dominant one. Lucia prefers the nickname 'Lucy'. These girls are also entertaining! They love to play and can be kept busy with a chew toy--or just each other. Initially, they had a few accidents in the house, but in just a couple of weeks those accidents have decreased to a rarity.
Lucia and Ethel are friendly with people and love to greet the rare visitor that comes to the door! They look forward to meeting people on walks and outings.
They are both WONDERFUL with our 5 and 8-year-old children. Ethel loves to play house and attend tea parties with our daughter. Lucia enjoys working on her fetch game and just hanging out with the kids. After playing, they will both sit nicely and snuggle on the couch and watch a movie with the kids--preferring to sit close with head on lap.
They do well on a leash individually but could use some work when walking in a pack. They both enjoy playing in the fenced yard and would benefit from having a fenced yard, but also do well on a tie out. Their energy level is moderate--while they like to run and play, they will also lounge around during the day and sleep all night!
Lucia and Ethel love being around other dogs! They do very well with our resident dogs and each other. They are not possessive over food or toys and will sit nicely when offered a treat!
Both girls show no interest in cats; ignore them and do not chase.
We allow the girls to free roam in a limited portion of the house when we are not home for a few hours at a time (currently working from home). They both do very well!
The girls were treated for heartworm and finish their activity restriction on March 11. Adopters should anticipate a dental for the pair in the next 1-2 years.
Lucia and Ethel are quick learners, friendly, and really fun dogs that will thrive in practically any household! The bonded pair adoption fee is $525.
