We found a new home for our Stray- Her name is Lulu


Our boston terrier, Aldo and I were at the park last night when we saw this frantic scared dog in the street. I think (in fact, I am certain) someone ditched her there because she kept searching all the cars parked on the street. She immediately ran to me when I called her and was so sweet and friendly. I wish I could say the same of Aldo - he is a one dog show and barked, snapped and pretty much made this poor dog and me miserable all the way back to our house.

Jon and decided that the best thing for her would be to spend the night at the city shelter -where she wouldn't be tormented by Aldo. I gave her a bath, some food, bought her a new collar and took her out to the shelter. The shelter was better than I though and they explained that she would be held 5 days so that if the owner is looking for her they have time to find her. Then she will be put up for adoption.

She is a sweet, friendly dog who never barked, bit or acted out at all- no matter how much she was provoked. Please contact me if you or someone you know can give her a good home.

She is at the Los Angeles North Central Shelter
Her Animal ID is #A1080832
The phone number for the shelter is (213)485-9241
She will be available for adoption starting this Saturday Dec 12th- 09
