About Lulu

Meet Lulu, a remarkable Shepherd mix who's ready to leap into your heart! After spending over a year in a grocery store parking lot, this clever and resilient girl showed her strength by caring for her two puppies until someone finally brought them to safety. Now, she’s looking for a family that can spoil her as she has done for her little ones. At around 2 years old, Lulu is house trained and knows how to sit. Her playful spirit shines when she enjoys a good game of catch, and once she warms up, you'll discover how loyal and lovable she can be. Although she might be a bit shy initially, her goofy personality quickly emerges, making her a joy to be around. Lulu gets along well with other dogs and dreams of a cozy couch and loving family. Lulu is currently heartworm positive, but K-9 Lifesavers is committed to providing her with the necessary treatment so that she can be a healthy, happy companion. While Lulu will need a bit of a refresher in her house training, enrolling her in obedience classes will help ease her transition to her new home. This loving girl deserves all the affection she gave her babies. Don’t miss out on the chance to make Lulu part of your family! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
