SUGAR NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!
Name: Sugar Best Guess for Breed: Lab/terrier mix
Best Guess for Age: 7 weeks as of 7/28/26 SEX: Female
Estimated Weight (puppies' weights change quickly!): 8lbs as of 7/26/26
Gets Along With: Most puppies are in the prime of their socialization window and will do well with other dogs, cats and kids so long as they receive patience and proper training.
Currently Living at: Puerto Rico Shelter
Special Adoption Considerations: Puppies under 6 months of age need to have multiple potty breaks/exercise throughout the day. Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy.
Sugar is Looking For: Hiya! The four of us—Sugar, Scottie, Selene, and Sunny—have spent our first weeks growing up together with our amazing mom, Snookie, after Lucky Dog volunteers rescued our little family from the streets of Puerto Rico. Now that we're safe, we're ready to find our forever homes in the DC area!I'm looking for a family who will help me discover all the fun things life has to offer—playing with toys, getting zoomies with my puppy friends, taking lots of walks, and curling up for cozy naps after a day of adventures. I'd love to make some doggie friends along the way, and I'd be excited to learn all about being the best pup I can be in a puppy obedience class. Most of all, I'm looking for a home filled with love, patience, and plenty of belly rubs.
What do you say? Could I be the newest member of your family?
What My Foster Says About Me: Coming soon!
Puppy Vetting Requirements: Lucky Puppies have had their age appropriate vaccines, but may not yet be “fully” vaccinated. It is the adopter’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining puppy vaccines are given at the appropriate time. Please also keep in mind that, until your puppy is fully vaccinated, they are at greater risk for illness than an adult dog.
Due to this puppy’s young age, she/he has not yet been spayed or neutered. As part of the adoption contract, it will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that this is done no later than December 3, 2026. There are NO EXCEPTIONS and NO EXTENSIONS to this date. A non-refundable spay/neuter deposit will be collected if you would like Lucky Dog to pay for this animal to be spayed/neutered at one of our low cost partner vets.
Your new puppy will need to work on their house training and will also need to go to obedience school so they can grow into a well-socialized dog! TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this puppy is $485, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.
