Handsome Holiday Hound

Lucas is such an amazing and lovable dog. His secondary trainer says that he has a ton of love for him already! He is the largest dog in the class, and his dark-striped, beautiful coat pattern also makes him the most handsome. Both intelligent and sensitive, he is the strong, silent type - but he goes crazy over anything that squeaks! It's a lot of fun to run with Lucas on the yard. The first time he ran with the secondary trainer, he jogged right alongside him. But he is capable of running much faster than any human!

Lucas is very easy to get along with and train and has quickly learned what his trainers want him to do. His secondary trainer reported that he could not have hoped for a better dog. Lucas is improving everyday and his trainer thinks he will like being a family pet instead of a racing dog because playing in freedom will bring out the full potential of his personality. He really enjoys exploring new sights and smells. His trainer says that he admires Lucas's quiet endurance throughout all his training and he hopes that Lucas goes to a good home. He loves treats and food in general, and he especially loves toys to chew on.

His trainer calls him Cool Hand Luke after the Paul Newman character. Right now, Lucas is relaxing peacefully in his bed. Sometimes he sleeps upside down on his back, and it makes you want to give him a belly rub and remind him what a good boy he is, and how much he is loved. It makes his trainers happy to imagine how much Lucas will appreciate all the new experiences and attention that he will receive when adopted!
