She is showing her happy side everyday! She loves playing with her big brother Cosmo (Australian Shepard). A big thank you to the loving care given to her by her foster parents and 4 Lucky Dogs Rescue to help her to find her furever home. We are truly blessed.

Sincerely, Nick and Linda

🎉 Happy Tails 🎉

Some-bunny is having the best life ever!! 

Rescue is a team effort.  Our rescue friends, Danielle Faller (the surrender arranger and foster), Molly Ames (the previous owner’s initial contact), and Kelsey Nitchals (transport), worked together to bring in our golden boy, Wrigley, in September of 2023.  

A friend of our rescue saw his picture and knew that he was their future Most Valuable Puppy (“MVP”).  It only took one meet and great at O’Brien’s Irish Pub for this Chicago Cubs loving family, Tony, Carey, and Olivia Zeithaml, to know they needed to draft this handsome boy.

Wrigley, named after Wrigley Field, texted his is previous foster, and we just HAD to share this heartwarming underdog success story.  “Miss Danielle…I love stealing small hangers and socks, going on car rides, playing with friends, dressing up for special occasions, and I absolutely love my sissy <3, Thank you for giving this sweet family to me.  They love me so much! ❤ Wrigley.”

Today makes it official that our longest foster resident, Kiki is adopted 🩷 

We took Kiki in back in June of 2023 as a breeder surrender - same breeder we got our Sashi from. They were actually sisters from the same litter. Except when we got Kiki she was already 10 months old and not trusting at all. 

It’s been a long 9 months and we did not make a ton of progress with her, but we kept her safe until we could find her perfect home. 

& we did! Thanks to Wendy for choosing our rescue and submitting the perfect application, we knew this was going to be an environment in which Kiki would excel in. We drove her home to St. Augustine last weekend and she has already made huge strides in trusting her family. 

Fostering is not always fun and easy, Kiki was a tough one, but it was all worth it in the end.

 He’s now Mezcal “Mezzi” and absolutely beyond loved! Here is his story! 

Mezzi came to 4LD, a 1 year old, intact and absolutely terrified pup. Thankfully our friend Carolann was able to take him in right away to foster! He transferred over to our friend Sarah where he finally started to come out of his shell, but first he hid in every small crevice he could find. Under tables, under desks, and his favorite spot was behind our sectional couch. 

In hiding he learned “this isn’t so bad” and let us put him on the couch and get lots of snuggles. We worked on his potty training, learning how to play and going in a crate! He spent a few weeks at Casa Connor and then he met “Mom & Dad.” 

Ali, her husband Chase and their pup Moose came highly recommended from a previous adopter who also has 3 berners! We set up a meet and greet and they fell instantly in love! It’s been about 4 months and they have the perfect puppy! Mezzi plays in the yard with Moose, he chews on his toys and still plays an occasional game of hide and seek 🤣

We were so excited that one of our former adopters wanted to be repeat customers of our rescue and adopt our Zena girl! Sadie Mae was adopted by the Locheads as one of our very first dogs, and it was a perfect fit! It has been amazing watching her grow over the past year, and receive such a good life and lots of love. Now Zena is going to be just as LUCKY as Sadie Mae! Better yet, these two girls hit it off right away! We are so happy for sweet little Zena!
