"Lucky Pup is an amazing rescue! When we lost our 14 yr old lab we knew we wanted to add another dog to our family. The volunteers at LPR made the process so smooth & helped match the dog that was a perfect fit for our family! Because all of the dogs are in foster homes, their fosters know their personalities & habits & this helps make sure that each dog is going to the best home possible to fit their individual needs. I cannot recommend this rescue enough, whether you are looking to foster or adopt!"

The work and care that goes in to saving these pups is done with such care, compassion, and selflessness. I’ve seen the work, the long hours, the transformations of lost and broken to happy and safe, and the teamwork that makes it all happen. I am blessed to be a part of this organization."

"The people in this rescue work tirelessly not only to help to lovable dogs, but also the less easy to love medical cases that need a lot of hands on sacrifice, TLC, funds. They never turn down the hard ones and I’ve seen countless transformations you wouldnt believe. They are also very careful to not over accept dogs into the rescue which is equally important for the health of both the dogs, and the volunteers!"

— tiffany f.

It’s empowering to not only save lives, but save lives amongst heroines. Because of the bond & community that’s been built, fosters are eager to step up, and take in more dogs under their wing. The love & support we have for one another is magical & because of this we’ve been able to love, rescue, raise funds all for the beautiful souls who’ve we made promises to save!"

— ashlyn b.

Volunteer / foster

"Lucky Pup is an incredible organization who not only values the dogs, but surrounds them with volunteers who will go above and beyond for their care and well-being. I’ve been fostering for them for almost two years and also frequently foster serious medical dogs and there has never been a time where Lucky Pup hasn’t done everything possible to provide the necessary care for my pups. They have spent THOUSANDS to save dogs most rescues would give up on. I’m incredibly grateful for that effort and am happy to provide a safe and loving home where they can heal. I feel supported by the organization everyday and have never needed for anything when it comes to supplies, advice, and a cheerleader or two on the hard days."

— taylor u.

Adoptee, Volunteer / foster

My Dog Is Food Aggressive With Other Dogs: What To Do
Does your dog ever growl when you walk by their food dish? Maybe they get possessive of treats, carrying them far away and giving you side-eye when you start to approach — or snarling at your other pets or children if they get too close.
Scent Training for Dogs: A Beginner's Guide
As almost every dog owner is aware, the nose of a dog is an amazing thing. Just as they can pick up sounds we can’t hear, their sense of smell and ability to pick up scents is well beyond ours. In fact, dogs have 40 times the number of olfactory receptors as humans.
Service Dog Training Costs: DIY vs. Pro
More than 80 million Americans rely on their service dogs to help them navigate the world. Task-trained assistance animals perform a huge range of life-changing—in many cases, life-saving—services: These dogs act as eyes for visually impaired handlers, provide mobility support, alert to seizures and blood sugar crashes, interrupt anxiety attacks, remind their people to take medications, and so much more.
What is and How to Handle Potty Training Regression
You thought your dog was house trained. Your home was clean from puddles of pee, those dreaded middle-of-the-night bathroom breaks were behind you, and you loved every minute of dog ownership… until your four-legged best friend started using the bathroom inside again. What’s going on?
Coprophagia: Why Does Your Dog Eat Poop?
Ah, poop. We humans think it’s disgusting… but many of our dogs seem to love the stuff. If you’re wondering why your canine companion tries to eat feces (either their own or that of other animals) you’re not alone!

Dog reactivity guides

Rottweiler Aggression: Truth vs. Myth
Many dogs have gotten a bad reputation over the years for being "dangerous breeds." Rottweilers are among them. Like pit bulls and other large, blocky-headed types of dogs, these powerful and beautiful animals are often assumed to be aggressive.
What Is a Reactive Dog? A Guide to Understanding Reactivity
So: Your dog is reactive. They’ll see another dog, person, or other stimulus in the environment (cars, bikes, skateboards, and other fast-moving objects are also common triggers) while out on a walk and suddenly go crazy at the end of their leash. The barking, lunging, and growling not only feels embarrassing for you — it’s clear that your pup isn’t having a great time either.
How to Socialize a Reactive Dog: A Step-by-Step Guide
Does your dog display reactivity to other pets or people? Maybe they’re a new rescue pup and are still settling into your home. Or they were sick growing up, so you missed their critical socialization period. Possibly they’ve had a bad experience after being raised as a normal puppy.
