Luke came to Emmy’s Hope Rescue as an owner surrender in January 2018. The owner reported that he had adopted little Luke from another rescue right before Thanksgiving. Luke and his 4 siblings had been rescued from a dumpster in the Kingwood area. Due to the owner’s long work hours, he did not feel it was good for Luke to be left alone in a kennel all day.

Luke is the sweetest boy but perhaps because he didn't have enough positive socialization as a puppy, he is very shy around other dogs, and especially humans. We continue to work on his social skills at the Rescue. He enjoys being with other small dogs but still does not actively engage in play with them. He needs lots of time to trust and warm up to strange humans. Little Luke needs a quiet family that has the patience and love to work with him. 

Estimated birth date:  August 2017

Approximate weight:  12 lbs.

If you would like to meet Luke, please call or text Stephanie at  281-622-6549.
