Lucy was “rescued” by Humane Society of the Dunes in September 2022. She was originally at IACS Shelter Rescue Team (formerly called IACS Rescue) and Indianapolis Animal Care Services (IACS) before HSotD pulled her. The founder of the rescue is Jane Hullsiek and the rescue is based out of Northwest Indiana (NWI).

Lucy was “rescue only” at the Indy shelter because in addition to being heartworm positive, she also was having some behavioral issues including resource guarding toys and difficulty with leashing. She was able to be handled by staff and volunteers but was not suitable for regular adoption from the shelter. Humane Society of the Dunes in Chesterton, Indiana pulled her from the shelter. They never posted any updates about Lucy and their Facebook page was recently deleted. When donors reached out to the rescue in early 2024 asking for updates on animals they had donated for, Jane stated she would send their letter to her lawyer then stopped responding.

We are offering $100 for proof of Lucy’s whereabouts today. She’d be about 11 years old now, give or take a few years. Please share to help us find out Lucy’s outcome.
