๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’• MEET LULU! ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿพ

Looking for a sweet little shadow who wants to be part of everything you do? Meet Lulu, an adorable 2-year-old, 15.4-lb. dachshund with a gentle heart and a whole lot of love to give! ๐Ÿฅฐ

Lulu is sweet, playful, affectionate, and incredibly docile. Her foster says she may be the most docile dog theyโ€™ve ever met!

๐ŸŒธ LULU AT A GLANCE
๐Ÿถ Age: 2 years old
โš–๏ธ Weight: 15.4 lbs.
๐Ÿ’• Personality: Sweet, gentle, playful, shy & affectionate
๐Ÿก House Trained: Yes!
๐Ÿพ Leash Trained: Yes
๐Ÿš— Car Rides: Loves them!
๐Ÿ›๏ธ Dog Beds: Yes
๐Ÿ“ฆ Crate Trained: Unknown โ€” her foster doesnโ€™t use a crate
๐Ÿ”Š Barking: Very little
๐Ÿ’— Separation Anxiety: Yes โ€” Lulu is definitely a Velcro girl!

๐Ÿ• DOGS, CATS & KIDS

๐Ÿพ Small Dogs: Yes! Lulu does well with other small dogs.

๐Ÿ• Large Dogs: Not a good match. Lulu is usually afraid of larger dogs and would be happiest without them.

๐Ÿฑ Cats: Probably not Luluโ€™s cup of tea. She spent a night around her fosterโ€™s friendโ€™s cat and was very afraid of him. She showed no aggression, and the two were able to coexist as long as they kept their distance, but a cat-free home would likely be more comfortable for Lulu.

๐Ÿ‘ง Young Children: No
๐Ÿง’ Older Children: Yes!

๐Ÿฆฎ WALKS & OUTDOOR ADVENTURES

Put on that harness because Lulu LOVES her walks! ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿพ

She does well on a leash and absolutely loves exploring the world with her people. A walk around a new neighborhood, a trip to the springs, a visit to the dog beach, or another little adventure sounds like a wonderful day to Lulu.

And squirrels? ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ Those are especially exciting!

๐Ÿก HER DREAM HOME

One thing on Luluโ€™s wish list is a beautiful, securely fenced yard where she can safely spend time sniffing, exploring, playing, and keeping tabs on the neighborhood squirrels. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ

Even more important is having people who are home more often than not.

Lulu is a true Velcro dog. โค๏ธ She bonds closely with her humans and wants to be included in everyday life. She does show signs of separation anxiety and notices when her people arenโ€™t around, so she needs a family that has plenty of time to spend with her and can include her in their activities and adventures.

๐Ÿš— HAVE CAR, WILL TRAVEL!

Lulu is a fantastic little passenger!

Her foster puts her carrier by the door before leaving, and Lulu will climb right in without even being asked. ๐Ÿฅน She stays calm during car rides, doesnโ€™t get carsick, and is always happy to head somewhere new with her favorite people.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ SLEEPING & SNUGGLES

Lulu uses a dog bed, and her foster has been teaching her to sleep in her own bed in the living room. Sheโ€™s getting better at itโ€ฆbut eventually she may appear at the bedroom door and cry for her people. ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ’•

Given the choice, Lulu would absolutely sleep with her humans! She simply wants to be wherever her favorite people are.

๐Ÿšฝ HOUSE TRAINING

Lulu is house trained and is very good about doing her business outside. ๐Ÿ‘

She isnโ€™t quite as reliable with pee pads, so regular opportunities to go outdoors work best for her.

๐Ÿ– FOOD & TOYS

Lulu has shown no food or toy aggression. Her foster describes her as an exceptionally docile little girl. ๐Ÿ’—

โ›ˆ๏ธ THUNDERSTORMS

Lulu is very afraid of thunder. Stormy nights can be especially difficult for her, and she may cry throughout the night. Sheโ€™ll need a patient, comforting family who will help her feel safe when Floridaโ€™s thunderstorms roll through. โ›ˆ๏ธโค๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘‹ MEETING NEW PEOPLE

Lulu is friendly, but she needs introductions to happen on her own time and on her own terms.

She may initially be shy and timid, so donโ€™t rush her. Give her a little space and sheโ€™ll eventually come over for a sniffโ€ฆand once she decides youโ€™re okay, youโ€™re friends! ๐Ÿฅฐ

๐Ÿ’– WHY YOUโ€™LL FALL IN LOVE WITH LULU

Lulu is the kind of little dog who doesnโ€™t just want a homeโ€”she wants to be part of your life.

She wants to follow you around, cuddle beside you, ride in the car with you, explore new places, take long sniffy walks, chase squirrels in the backyard, and soak up every bit of attention youโ€™re willing to give her.

Sheโ€™s sweet, playful, gentle, affectionate, and absolutely adorable, and she seems to steal hearts everywhere she goes. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿพ

Luluโ€™s perfect family will understand that her people are her whole world. She needs a home where someone is around much of the time and where she can be included in everyday activities and adventures.

If youโ€™re searching for an affectionate little companion who wants nothing more than to be right by your side, Lulu just might be your girl. ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ’—
