LuLu is here



Granddaughter Candis and I picked her up after school today. The shelter said she'd been sleeping all day. Well, believe me she has not slept a wink since. She is a little live wire, cheery and fun. She and Nikki have been chasing each other and wrestling and having a ball. In the yard she follows Nik around like a little sister, learning the good places to sniff and peek through the fence. Buddy gave a little growl to warn them that they can't wrestle on top of him when he's napping. It was a Grrrr.... Elder Dog Abuse Alert..... Grrrr... and they dashed off and didn't bother him again. She has to learn that he gets his food dish first too. But the stairs which totally confused her at first have now been conquered, and 4 or 5 minutes with the dogs going in and out and she had the doggie door in her bag. She's doing fine. And since she didn't respond to Lola, her given name - I am calling her Lucy (she's kind of a ditsy red head) but LuLu for short. She already comes when we call her that. Right now we are going to take another walk outside. I want to make sure she learns her manners is thoroughly housebroken. We welcome her to our home and hearts.
