Luca

(Was Lucky)

Lucky is a gorgeous, 9 months old, castrated Golden Retriever dog.

HISTORY

PERSONALITY
Lucky is a lovely natured dog who is eager to please. He loves to be around people and is always keen to say “hello” to visitors, wanting to be patted. He gets anxious when people are leaving a room.

He is sometimes boisterous and is full of beans 24/7 as would be expected of a youngster. He can be calm after a long walk.
