Lucy
German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (medium coat) · Young (3 years) · Female · Large · Detroit Lakes, MN
Notes from Marshmallow Foundation
Meet Lucy!
Lucy is a beautiful young German Shepherd mix with a gentle soul and a heart full of love. She can be a little shy when she first meets new people, but once she warms up, she becomes the biggest sweetheart and total lover who just wants to be by your side.
This sweet girl has one very specific favorite toy: stuffed animal balls (no stuffed bears or other shapes — she’ll happily shred those apart!). She loves carrying them around, playing gentle fetch, and showing off her playful side with her favorite ball toys.
Lucy may enjoy a home with kids who will give her time to build trust and shower her with affection. She prefers to be the only pet in the home so she can get all the attention and become the cherished family companion she was meant to be.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving dog who will grow more confident and affectionate every day, Lucy might be the perfect match for your family!
Visitors to the shelter are by appointment only and after a form has been submitted online:
