My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Are you a fan of squishy faces and long, droopy ears?

If you are, then Lulu may be the girl for you!

Lulu is an incredibly sweet and incredibly squishy 2 year old English Coonhound that came to Shadow and Sky from a high volume animal shelter in Kentucky. One of the shelter workers there rescued her during their Thanksgiving holiday from very poor and neglectful conditions, and drove her 3 hours back to the shelter to give Lulu a chance at a better life.

While in the shelter, Lulu made friends with the staff there, and they found out that she was housebroken, crate trained, knew some commands, and LOVED the car. And if that isn’t enough to sell you, Lulu is pretty quiet for a hound! She howls when she’s playing, but other than that she is quiet and demure. Lulu settles so well in her crate at night that you wouldn’t even know she was there.

Lulu is currently living in a foster home with 3 other large dogs and a 7 pound puppy. She loves all of them fiercely, and is particularly fond of her Doberman foster sister. Lulu would love to have another playful canine in her adoptive home with her, as she is EXTREMELY attached to her dog friends. Lulu will play for hours and really seeks out affection and playtime from the other dogs 24/7. Unfortunately, Lulu has a slight prey drive so would not do well in a home with cats or other small animals, but she is so loving, playful and affectionate that she could do well with sturdy children over 5!

A fenced in yard is on Lulu’s Christmas list since she loves to run around and play, and since she is a hound dog, listening the first time is not one of her talents. Girlfriend just wants to follow her nose!

Because she’s a hound, you can probably guess that one of her favorite things is…..FOOD! Lulu will do anything for treats and knows several tricks including sit and paw. She will smell food from a mile away and come running for it (that’s the key to getting her to listen). And surprisingly, even though she is so food motivated, Lulu is not a huge counter surfer. She has been pretty respectful of the counters in her foster home.

Overall, Lulu is just a country girl looking for a Hallmark movie ending for Christmas this year. If you are thinking you could give this silly hound a home for the howlidays, please feel free to apply at shadowandskyrescue.org!

More about this rescue

We are a small foster based rescue that is just starting out. We just got our 501c3 about a month and a half ago, and just got our first ever dogs this week. I currently am employed in animal welfare, and knew there was a need for dogs to get pulled from shelters into rescues, and that is what we do. (I am a brand new organization so I provided my personal vet as a reference. We will be taking animals to vet appointments shortly, as our very first dogs arrived yesterday).

Other pets at this rescue

There are currently no additional pets at this rescue. Please check back later!
