Lucy was one of the very first puppies born on our farm, and her personality made the decision to keep her an easy one. She's kind, gentle, and genuinely joyful to be around. Her blue merle coat has softened and lightened beautifully over the years, and she passes that range on to her puppies - apricots, creams, and merles.
