lulu

Meet lovely Lulu — a gentle soul in need of a second chance. Lulu came to the shelter as a lost dog on 4/21, and heartbreakingly, no one has come looking for her. This beautiful girl is feeling a bit scared and shut down in the noisy shelter environment, which is completely understandable. Even so, her sweet nature shines through. Beneath that timid exterior is a kind, gentle dog who simply needs a peaceful place to exhale and feel safe again. We truly believe Lulu will blossom in a calm, loving home once she has the chance to decompress and settle in. One thing that already makes her tail wag? Treats! Lulu takes them so politely and will sit like a perfect lady in hopes of earning another.

Lulu has tested positive for heartworms, which makes finding her an adopter or foster especially urgent when the shelter is overcrowded. But heartworm disease is treatable, and with proper veterinary care Lulu can go on to enjoy many happy, healthy years ahead. Shelter staff can also talk with you about a foster-to-adopt option while she receives treatment. Right now, Lulu doesn’t need perfection — she just needs someone willing to believe in her. Could you be the hero this sweet girl has been waiting for?

Lulu is approximately 1 year old, and weighs 68 lbs. She is UTD on vaccines, and will be spayed and microchipped upon adoption. Lulu is waiting patiently in kennel 807; her ID # is 18443.
