Luella “Lulu”

Lulu is an extraordinarily determined little puppy with a remarkably deep trust in people. She is deeply soft and fiercely persistent—affectionate, socially connected and exceptionally comfortable trusting people, while approaching challenges with an almost remarkable determination to find a way.

Because Lulu has three legs, some things are physically harder for her, but she rarely seems interested in letting that define what she can do. She investigates, attempts, adapts and accepts help when useful—then keeps going. As her strength has grown, her confidence, curiosity and exuberance have blossomed with it. She exudes companionship while still possessing an extraordinary little will of her own.

Lulu may be an especially wonderful match for someone wanting a deeply connected, affectionate companion who appreciates her determination and wants to help her live a full, engaged life.

Her ideal family will support her physical needs without unnecessarily limiting her independence, encouraging her curiosity, play and problem-solving while providing appropriate lifelong care. Lulu’s combination of exceptional human trust, social softness, resilience and connection may also make her particularly interesting for emotional-support or potentially therapy-oriented companionship.
