Description
Lucia’s life almost ended before it truly had the chance to begin. This beautiful golden Labrador retriever was trapped inside a kill compound, her fate sealed, her minutes ticking away. She had pressed her face against the cold iron bars, eyes filled with quiet despair, already believing that no one was coming for her. The sounds of fear and loss surrounded her, and she had stopped wagging her tail — the last sign of hope slowly fading.
And then, in the very last moments, everything changed. Gentle arms reached for her, not to take her life, but to save it. In that instant, Lucia was pulled from the shadows of death into the light of a new beginning. She buried her head into her rescuer’s arms as if she knew: “I have been saved.”
Since that day, Lucia’s true spirit has bloomed. Far from the trembling, hopeless dog she once was, she is now a burst of joy and energy. She adores life, loves to play, run, and explore, and above all, she is overflowing with affection. Lucia cannot get enough of hugs, kisses, and cuddles — she gives them freely, as if she knows the value of every moment she almost lost.
Lucia is wonderful with children, gets along beautifully with other dogs and even cats, and has all the good manners of a dog ready for family life. She is sterilised, toilet trained, and walks well on the lead.
This girl has endured the unthinkable and yet her heart is pure, her trust unbroken, her love endless. Lucia is not just looking for a home — she is waiting for the family who will honour her second chance at life, who will play with her, cherish her, and return every hug and kiss she so willingly gives.
Lucia was minutes from death. Today, she is a living miracle. All she needs now is you.
