cky – The Social Butterfly With a Heart of Gold
Tall, dark, handsome—and finally living up to his name!
After spending 230 long days in a rural South Carolina shelter, Lucky is finally getting his chance to shine. Now thriving in a loving foster home, this sweet Shepherd mix is showing the world who he really is: affectionate, hilarious, and full of life. Every day, he's blossoming into the confident, joyful dog he was always meant to be.
A Whole New Lucky
Since leaving the shelter, Lucky has come alive. His foster family says he's absolutely thriving with the companionship of other dogs and people. With a home, a pack, and some freedom to be himself, Lucky has become a lovable goofball who lives for connection and cuddles.
He's not just adjusting—he’s thriving.
Social Superstar
Lucky is incredibly friendly and highly social—he wags his entire body in joyful spins when people walk by or say hello. He’s been doing great at doggie daycare and in his foster home where he lives with other dogs and a cat. He lights up around other animals and would be happiest in a home with at least one other dog to play and bond with.
"He spins in happy circles when he sees you—he literally can't contain his excitement!"
Playful, Active, and Engaged
Lucky loves to play fetch, tug-of-war, and toss toys in the air just to make himself laugh. But he’s just as happy to stretch out on the couch beside you after a fun day. His ideal life? A mix of adventure and snuggles—walks, dog park visits, playdates, and then downtime at home with his people and pup pals.

What Lucky Needs to Thrive
A playful canine companion – He blossoms when he has another dog around
A fenced yard or access to one – He needs space to stretch his long legs and burn off that happy energy
People time, every day – He’s a true companion dog who thrives when surrounded by love
Ongoing leash training – He’s working with a trainer to stay calm around new dog friends on walks
Kitchen Companion & Fruit Fan
Lucky adores fresh fruits and veggies and is a perfect sous-chef while you’re working in the kitchen. He doesn’t beg—he just hangs out to keep you company and hopes for a carrot or two.
And while he’s not a barker, Lucky sometimes gives a soft little “moo” when he wants your attention. Yes, really. And yes, it's adorable.
Sweet, Gentle, and Spa-Day Ready
This big-hearted boy is as gentle as they come. He stood like a champ for his bath and has the softest, silkiest coat. He’s also fantastic in the car and loves tagging along on adventures.
