When Lucy showed up in someone’s yard, the Golden Retriever looked like she had “been bred hard.” She was bedraggled and wouldn’t eat hard kibble. A Good Samaritan contacted Lee Asher with The Asher House and he came out to rescue the dog.
Lucy had scars on her head and nose and had just had babies. The Good Samaritan who took her in suspected Lucy had been “living” at a puppy mill. Asher looked at the scared and traumatized dog and got the feeling that the dog had been abused for no reason. He was pretty upset, realizing “this dog has been through it.”

She got introduced to the pack and they were all very protective of her.
