About Lulu

Lulu is a 2½-year-old spayed female German Shepherd mix, weighing around 65 lbs, currently in San Francisco. Her people describe her as loyal and affectionate, though she can be a bit insecure at times. While she enjoys playing fetch and going on adventures, she sometimes feels overwhelmed and prefers to relax under her humans' chairs. She is friendly with strangers, but it’s important to take introductions slowly. Lulu is not comfortable around very young children, which is why her family is seeking a new home for her. She does well with one or two dogs in neutral settings and even enjoys the company of small dogs. However, she can find large groups of dogs intimidating. Completely housetrained, Lulu can be left loose in the house when her family is gone and sleeps in a crate at night. She's received formal training and follows commands well. Although she walks nicely on a leash, she can sometimes bark and pull toward other dogs. With her newfound medication and professional training, she's improving in this area. Lulu is a wonderful companion for those who understand her needs, ready to bring joy to a new home.
