Character
"There is a cute little girl who has been in my shelter a long time and desperately needs a family"...
Lacey. Born 2020, about 10kgs, partially sighted and currently in outdoor foster in Romania.
Lacey is so unassuming that it took a while before anyone at the shelter noticed she was partially sighted. A recent vision test at the vets showed that she can't see in the top part of her eyes; she tends to look down rather than up. But Lacey copes so well that she has likely had this restricted vision since birth.
"I found her wandering alone on a road and took her in", explains her rescuer. But that was a few years ago now. Even though Lacey is small, well-behaved and pretty, she hasn’t managed to get herself noticed and adopted. Can we do something about that?
"She is a very sweet dog that wants to play", her rescuer says. She loves human interaction and cuddles. Lacey’s energy level is medium - she often wants to play but at other times is content to sit quietly.
Lacey is good with people and is very loving. She gets along very well with other dogs. She has just been cat tested and showed no interest in the cat.
Lacey lives with many other dogs in an outdoor foster home. She is out in a play area with other dogs during the day and goes into her pen with the other vulnerable dogs overnight. She is used to being handled as she is picked up every night for a quick cuddle before being put to bed.
Lacey can wear a collar and harness and has been on a lead but will likely need further training. As she loves people she should be easy to train. Her rescuer thinks she should adapt easily to living in a house. Lacey has been neutered.
In some photos Lacey resembles a mini labrador with her soft round head and huge chocolate-button eyes (a very mini, short-legged one!) In other photos you will see she has the trademark Romanian curly tail and those ears that have a life of their own. Her dear little paws are so dainty she doesn’t make a very convincing street dog. She needs a sofa.
"Is it my turn now?"

Please note - we do not rehome dogs to families with children under the age of 10.
Type of Home Sought
Lacey is looking for a home where she is loved. She’d like lots of attention and cuddles with someone who is willing to help her settle into her new life and learn all about living in a home. She could live with other dogs. As her rescuer says, "she can live with any kind of family, where she is loved, comforted and cuddled".
