Dear All Pets Rescue,


We happily adopted Miss Lucy Jane (LUCY) after seeing her story on the All Pets Rescue website. My husband and I both fell for her after reading her story of neglect...she was hit by a car at her former owner's home and they did not obtain medical treatment to fix her back leg. Consequently, Lucy had to have her leg amputated. When we visited her at the foster home, she quickly gave kisses to our 7 year old son, but was very shy with us. We took her home and...Belle and Lucy quickly became the best of friends and played all the time. Cosmo didn't seem to mind Lucy at all and barely noticed she was in the house.   (But)  we faced one huge challenge...getting Lucy to go on a leash . Lucy was petrified of anything hooked to her and stood frozen if you tried. After one week of working with her daily, she has overcome any fears she had and now happily wears a leash or lead while running around the back yard chasing a ball . We are so happy that Lucy has joined our family and we know she will teach us a lot about her life with three legs! Finally a loving home for her.


Ann, Steve and Cole
