About Lulu

Lulu prefers to be close to her person, relishing any lap time she can get. She gets along well with other dogs but hasn’t shown much interest in playing while tending to her pups—a common trait for new mothers. She’s house trained and is described as incredibly sweet-natured, with a friendly attitude that makes her hard to resist. Lulu gets along with cats and dogs alike. She’ll be ready for her own home once her puppies are weaned, likely around July 15th. If you’re searching for a loyal, loving companion, keep an eye out for when Lulu becomes available—she’s sure to capture many hearts quickly. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
