Lucy's First Boyfriend

Lucy has her first boyfriend. At first, we thought it was just a good friendship, but over time it developed into a crush and after more time, we have recognized that what Roscoe and Lucy have together is special. Roscoe is the adorable yellow lab mix that lives across the street. He was also adopted from the Humane Society, so they share a similar background and upbringing. Roscoe loves to fetch tennis balls. However, when Lucy and Roscoe get together, it is absolute madness. Lucy chases Roscoe. Roscoe chases Lucy. They wrestle and "neck" each other. We have even witnessed Lucy kissing Roscoe (she licked him on his nose).

When Lucy is going for a walk, she runs across the street to see if Roscoe is in the yard. When Lucy lays on our bed upstairs, she has a prime view of Roscoe's house and we can always tell when Roscoe is outside because Lucy will go from the silent, well-behaved dog that we love to whimpery and whiny Lucy. When we aren't looking, Lucy will even jump up on the loveseat in front of the window in the living room to get a better look down the street at Roscoe's yard. Roscoe has even jumped over his front yard fence and ran down to our house to see if Lucy was outside and available to play. Too cute.
