Meet Lucy; #A5722569 this nine-month-old German shepherd is visibly heartbroken after she was surrendered to the Downey Animal Care Center in California. Sadly, Lucy must have drawn the short straw. She lies quietly in her kennel not understanding why she is no longer wanted by her previous owner.

Here she is. A volunteer writes:

…is only nine months old. The owner surrendered. She now spends her days hiding, her face plastered against the wall, too afraid to face the world.

She’s a 42-pound spayed German Shepherd ready to leave the shelter TODAY.

This heartbroken girl needs a little extra love. Please share her in hopes of finding a loving forever home.

Lucy is a sweet angel, adorable, lovable, and playful. She desperately needs someone to foster or adopt her. She needs a hero to I save her…

Please share Lucy’s plight with approved rescue organizations, friends, family and social media contacts. Sharing saves lives.
