Female Dog, Labrador Retriever
Labrador Retriever / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Meet Lulu! This lovely girl will make a wonderful friend and companion to a person or family who has the time to give her the attention she truly deserves. Lulu is a 7-year-old Lab mix with maybe a bit of Collie. She loves to run! She's the fastest dog in any dog park -- even faster than a Greyhound she once met. She's not a particular fan of dog parks, though -- too many other dogs with bad manners for her taste... :) Lulu is quite agile and gymnastic. She likes to twist and catch balls in the air, as long as it's gentle and doesn't hurt her doggie shoulders. Her disposition is really sweet. She actually likes cats (!) and has lived with a tomcat, a barn cat, and a Siberian. She's very respectful of each one and actually quite submissive around the two male kitties. Lulu is good on a leash, and is pretty obedient given her natural Lab enthusiasm for playing and running. She's had private training, knows the rules and generally follows them. She'd probably benefit from a harness while on her walks. She can go off-leash and responds very quickly when called. She's been known to be a bit anxious when encountering some (not all) new dogs on the street, but with treats she gets happily distracted. This can be part of her ongoing training with her adopter(s). Lulu is up to date on her doggie shots, is good with kids of all ages and good with a group of people around her. When strangers come to the door she makes it clear that this is her house! -- but with a good introduction she's happy to make a new friend. Her people say she'll do well with active adopters and with a friendly resident dog in the house -- ideally a male but it would depend on the dog, of course. For more info and/or to apply to adopt Lulu, send us an email at [email protected], telling us a bit about yourself, your home environment and your lifestyle. A volunteer will get back to you shortly. Thanks.
