Louise just rescued
April 2010
Louise
July 2012
Louise then and Louise now. It is amazing how much an animal can change when it is cared for and shown respect and kindness. Lulu was such a mess when we got her. Not only was she afraid of everyone and everything, but her skin was in such terrible shape and she had scars in many places; including where the flea collar was embedded in her neck. But you would never know that part of her life to look at her now. She is going to be 3 years old next month. I can hardly believe it. I am so in love with this silly, prancing, ball of anxiety. I guess we should have a dog party. Dog cookies for everyone! I will start planning. Look for your invitations early next month. Of course, I made her birthday Halloween, since I didn’t know the actual date. Isn’t that perfect? Just like Lulu Belle. 
Just another DogDaz morning at the zoo ❤

We went into a pet store one day to buy food. They were having a rescue event. I was not interested in a black labby puppu at all (I like hairy dogs) but the lead lady kind of pushed her on us. We went home and discussed it and talked to her foster mom. A few weeks later we were coming home with fearful little Louise. Thanks for asking.

If this isn’t an ad for adopting a rescued shelter dog, I don’t know what is! She is beautiful and lucky to have such a loving home!
