	2009 ADOPTED! Meet Princess our newest member to You Lucky Dog.  She is a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, who was brought to the Capital Area Humane Society in Columbus, Ohio, when her owners had to move and couldn’t take her with them.  She is a member of our Special Adoptables Program as she has mild hip dysplasia which is not uncommon with a dog of her weight and size that will need to be watched going forward.  She wants to be the only pet in the household and shows guarding behavior with her food bowl so would be best in a household with older children.  She is part of our toy enrichment program and has her own set of specially-chosen toys to play with in her kennel in between her 3-4 daily walks.
	2009 ADOPTED! Shiney is a 6 month old Beagle mix that was found as a stray and transferred to theSan Fransisco SPCA from a shelter in Selinas, CA.  Since he is still such a young guy, he has lots of energy, so he will need an adopter who has plenty of time to spend exercising him.  He is a bit on the shy side, so he is looking for a patient new friend who will help him to come out of my shell.  He would enjoy attending a reward-based training class so that he can learn lots of new things.
	ADOPTED! Roscoe is a 3-year-old dapper little Basset/Beagle Mix who found his way to the Humane Society of New York when the woman he lived with became ill and could no longer care for him. Like any respectable hound, he excels at putting his nose to the ground and following a scent.  Roscoe’s other interests include chewing peanut butter filled Kongs and going for car rides.  He considers everyone he meets an instant friend, and loves other dogs, cats and children. As Roscoe's sponsor, we are happy to say that ROSCOE HAS A NEW HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
	ADOPTED! Lexi is a friendly and active 12-year-old Labrador Retriever mix from the San Diego Humane Society who is looking for a new home. The affectionate girl was brought to the Humane Society when her owners were no longer able to care for her. She loves playing fetch, going for walks and taking long naps in the warm San Diego sun. This sweet girl will do well in any kind of home, including a home with children and other pets; and will make a wonderful, ready-made companion for someone special. As Lexi's sponsor, we are happy to say that LEXI HAS A NEW HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
	ADOPTED! Pictured to the right is Becker, who is from the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society. Becker is a 2 year old Australian Kelpie Mix who found his way to the Humane Society when his owners were no longer able to accommodate his energetic spirit in their small home. Becker is an intelligent, sweet, high-energy pup that loves to cuddle. He gets along very well with other dogs and loves to be outside! As Becker's sponsor, we are happy to say that BECKER HAS A NEW HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
	ADOPTED! On the left is Harley, an 8 year old Beagle mix. Harley Before going to live at the San Francisco SPCA, he survived on the streets by scrounging food from a local convenience store. You Lucky Dog sponsored his stay at the shelter and since arriving there, Harley has been a happy, tail-wagging fellow who loves going for long walks. As Harley's sponsor, we are pleased to announce that HARLEY FOUND A NEW HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
	ADOPTED! Roxie is a 3-year-old husky mix from Franklin County, OH, who was brought to the Capitol Area Humane Society in January of 2007 after being rescued from a neglectful home. Roxie is an extremely sweet, loving, affectionate girl who loves to cuddle and receive belly rubs! She is very bright and already knows how to "come" and "sit"! Roxie loves to practice and learn new commands and she is happy to work for either yummy treats or the reward of a tender touch. Happy Roxie enjoys running and being outdoors, and loves to meet and play with other dogs. Despite her playful spirit, Roxie is very laid back and well-behaved in the house and is also an excellent passenger in the car. As Roxy's sponsor, we are happy to say that ROXY HAS A NEW HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
	ADOPTED! At the right is Gumbo, our first sponsored dog. You wouldn't know from Gumbo's happy-go-lucky attitude that he went through a lot for a few months. Gumbo was one of 102 dogs flown in September 2005 to San Diego, CA from a temporary shelter in the Gulf Coast. He was being housed with thousands of other animals stranded and made homeless by Hurricane Katrina. As Gumbo's official sponsor at the San Diego Humane Society, we are happy to report GUMBO HAS FOUND A HOME! YOU LUCKY DOG!
