I am so curious as to her background and called the SPCA in VA where she was before coming to the shelter we discovered her at. All they could tell me was that she was a stray, picked up by a family and brought to them. She was at the SPCA for 3 months and no one came looking for her. It was there they spayed her, gave her all her shots and got her ready for the transfer to FOHA (Friends of Homeless Animals). They took a guess at how old she is and thinks 2 years of age is as accurate as they are going to get.
Based on her lack of training (no idea how to walk on a leash, doesn't know any commands), I wonder if she was on her own for a long time. And she has a cut on her ear that has since long healed, but it looks like she got into some kind of fight. Poor thing.
I feel so good about our journey to rescue. We saved her life. And in turn, she is saving ours. I love seeing the kids interact with Lucy. They've been desperately wanting a dog (so have I!) and Lucy's presence has been almost magical.
