One Year with Lucy

Hello friends.  We just celebrated Lucy's first anniversary with us on April 6, 2025.

When we adopted Lucy, she was only four months old.  She was so cute and small.  My daughter saw Lucy's bio and she fell in love with her right away.  She wanted us to adopt Lucy, and we applied and were accepted.  Lucy is a Chi/Terrior mix.  She is from the island of St. Thomas and was brought to New York City with her sibling sisters.  

On our first day we rescued and adopted Lucy from Social Tees Animal Rescue.  Instagram @socialteesnyc

Initially, we only let Lucy stay in the kitchen, with a gate blocking off the dining room and living room.

 

Lucy is so sweet and lovable.  My daughter and Lucy are obsessed with each other!  😀🐕  Lucy shares her love for each of us, my husband, daughter, and I.

You can see in the photo below that Lucy was starting to lose her baby look.

Lucy loves going for her walks in the neighborhood.

Lucy is such a silly dog and loves hanging out on the stairs.

When the weather is warm out she loves sitting in the yard in the sun.

Lucy looks forward to the sanitation guys coming each week and giving her a dog treat.  Here she is looking at the truck out the front window.

Lucy loves it when we take her to the dog park.  She plays nice with the other dogs.  This seems to calm her down and she then rests for the rest of the day.

Last year we took Lucy to the Jersey Shore on our beach vacation.  She loved it there and was very good at the house we stayed in for a week.  When we had to leave her alone in the house, she stayed in her crate.

This is Lucy's favorite dragon Squishmallow bed.

Lucy loves to cuddle with me on the couch while I read or watch TV.

Here Lucy is protecting us and being our watchdog. 

It was a little rough in the beginning when we first adopted Lucy.  She is now comfortable with us and her routine.  Lucy is now a year and 5 months old.  We are happy we adopted Lucy and she brings us such joy each day.  I'm looking forward to another year with Lucy. 🐶
