Please contact Ann Marie Burns (AnnMarieB@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.not a millionaire!! a down-to-earth pup looking for his forever home! GATSBY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!     Name: Gatsby          Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd/Plott Hound Mix    Best Guess for Age:  15 weeks as of 01/21/26           SEX: male   Estimated Weight (puppies’ weights change quickly!):  18 pounds as of 01/14/2026   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:  DC area foster home   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.  Gatsby is Looking For: Hiya! I’m Gatsby! I’m a growing puppy on a very important mission: finding my forever family. Right now, I’m busy learning how to be a puppy, which includes wiggling, playing,being a bit mischievous and dreaming of my future. Once I’m old enough, I can’t wait to explore the neighborhood, go on walks, and make a lot of doggie friends along the way. I’ll need a loving home with patience, guidance, and maybe a puppy class or two so I can show off how smart I’m becoming. So… what do you think? Is there room in your heart (and maybe on your couch) for me? 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.      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.    If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life! Please visit us online at        www.luckydoganimalrescue.org       .
