In the shelter’s words

Lucky Jackson (aka LJ) is a handsome 70-pound Hound/Boxer mix with a sweet nature, a big heart, and an even bigger capacity to love! Born we believe in 2023, LJ experienced quite a bit of instability in his early life which left him a little unsure of the world at times. Yet, he is still willing to learn, and what he&#39s hoping for now is simple ... a stable home where he can finally settle in and stay! LJ is a medium-energy dog who finds a really nice balance between playtime and relaxation. At home, he&#39s calm, affectionate, and easy to live with. Give him a chew toy and he&#39s perfectly happy entertaining himself. He&#39s respectful of his space and yours. Then his goofy side kicks in. He&#39ll grab a toy, trot around proudly and try to recruit you into playtime. No takers? No problem. He&#39ll keep himself entertained, then settle right back down. LJ truly thrives on human connection. Encouraging words and affection mean everything to him. You can see how he softens when he knows he did something well. He&#39s also very smart with a wide vocabulary of both basic and advanced commands and he knows it well. He enjoys learning and paying attention to his person. This wonderful boy is house-trained and crate-trained. He enjoys car rides. When left alone, he settles calmly and keeps an eye on the home. He can be sensitive to environmental noise - things like motorcycles, loud equipment, or busy surroundings. With calm direction and reassurance, he settles and moves through it. LJ would thrive in a home that offers structure, patience, and encouragement. His ideal home would include: a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood where he can run and play; a person or family who enjoys engaging with him and building his confidence; and possibly another friendly dog who enjoys playing. Homes with small children or cats would not be the right fit. Teenagers and older would be a great match for him. What LJ truly needs is someone who sees the wonderful dog he already is and gives him the stability he&#39s been waiting for. In return, he&#39ll bring loyalty, laughter, and a whole lot of heart. If you&#39re looking for a truly special companion who will give you his whole heart and make your family complete, Lucky is waiting for you.
