In the shelter’s words

JULIET NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Juliet Best Guess for Breed: Australian cattle dog (blue heeler) mix Best Guess for Age: 2.5 years as of October, 2026 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 30 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! Juliet has also lived with older kids and has done well with younger children she has met. She hasn't lived with cats, but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home. Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think this pup would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure they can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes. Juliet is Looking For: If you think this pup is calling "Romeo! Romeo, wherefore are thou?!" - you are way off base. This young sato - a dog from Puerto Rico - couldn't possibly care less about Veronese drama. She's just eager to get her own humans in the DC area for sniffy walks and romps and world exploration! Making pup pals along the way would be great, and she'd like to go to dog school, too, so she can show how super smart she is. Most of all, though, she wants to know where she belongs, to be safe and loved. In exchange, she promises loyal companionship for all her days. What do you say? Can you see Juliet by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: Juliet is an affectionate and incredibly smart girl who is looking for a family to bathe her in all the love and attention she so rightly deserves. If you love a snuggly dog, Juliet is your girl! She absolutely loves cuddles and will happily offer up her belly for rubs and her ears for scritches. She is very people-oriented, loves interacting with her humans, and is eager to please. She has a big personality and a permanent adorably goofy smile on her face. She has also been introduced to babies and toddlers and was absolutely wonderful with them. She was loving, gentle, and happy to be around little ones, even rolling over belly-up to soak up all the attention and pets. She has shown that she could be a wonderful addition to a young family. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
