Welcome to Lake County Journal’s Pet of the Week. We will feature a pet awaiting adoption each week both in print and in our new online video. The pets featured  come from Whiskers & Wags Upscale Resale Shop and Adoption Center, 1126 Maple Ave., Mundelein.

The resale shop supports Reach Rescue, Inc., a volunteer-based nonprofit, no-kill animal  rescue group.  Volunteers include rescuers, fosters, vets, humane societies, humane investigators and shelters that advocate saving the lives of homeless animals. Pets awaiting adoptions live in foster homes.
Featured this week is Lucy and four of her six-week old puppies.

Here’s how Reach Rescue describes these dogs:
