A volunteer writes: Getting a puppy is on many people’s wish list….It probably should remain a wish for many….Bringing up a puppy..is not easy….and this is why, we are seeing so often five to ten month old youngsters in shelters across the country. Like children, puppies, to grow up to be wonderful adults and blend nicely within the family, need an” iron hand in a velvet glove”, patience, time, commitment and lots of love…It is not for everybody….We all have our limitations even if we have the desire to do more. I love puppies but I fostered or adopted only older pets as I do not have the time and energy to deal with babes…LuckieLuck is good example of what I was talking about…Acquired as a tiny “bean”, he grew up to be a handful, too excitable and active for the owner’s lifestyle. Luckie Luck comes with great comments, though. Wonderful with kids, very affectionate and playful, appears to be house trained and free of handling issues. He has been beautifully cared for and is a plump and healthy dumpling dressed in the most gorgeous and well groomed coat. He looks part Boxer but I am told that he counts American Bulldog genes in his pedigree. He really owns a gorgeous face and his body reminds me of a marble sculpture…. A bit shy in his kennel, Luckie Luck finds quickly his bearings in a pen with me. He is one playful little boy! His first task is to do his business. He comes right away when I call him, jumps or sits for treats and lights up at the sight of a tennis ball. He is a fireball himself, life in person. He is affectionate too and enjoys caresses while he is laying on the ground, savoring his ball. I am in awe, looking at him, playing with all his soul or resting peacefully in the sun…. Well, I like LuckieLuck ! His beauty, his serious and determined look, his liveliness and his youth…He can be mouthy, pushy and carried away with play but does listen to a firm : NO! LuckieLuck , our little boy, would love a new master but also a teacher who will tell him about boundaries and all the Good things that make a Good dog and pet… Come and meet him soon at the Manhattan Care Center.
