Of course, my husband and I fell in love with her picture and just had to have her. We were informed she had some neurological problems and walked a little funny, but wasn't on any medication. We decided, that didn't sound so bad so we told Mary we would take her and arranged to meet her foster parents for the hand off in Illinois.
LuLu is a very quiet little dog who likes to lay around a lot just watching everything going on. At first, when I would get home from work LuLu wouldn't even acknowledge me, now she turns her little head or will even stand up when I come in their room. Of course, the other four are just jumping for joy, but our little LuLu doesn't have the strength.
LuLu gets along very well with all four of her sisters and brothers even though they walk all over her at times. Our nickname for her is LuLu Bug, because she is only 4 pounds 4 ounces. When it is warmer we take LuLu outside and can tell she loves it. She just takes off running with her funny little gait and then waits for me to come pick her up and take her back in. Yes, I baby her a lot and she certainly deserves to be babied a lot! She is a joy to have and we feel
very fortunate and proud to be given the opportunity to take care of this special little girl who has touched our hearts in a big way.
I can't thank Mary enough for all the great work she does by rescuing these dogs and allowing us to adopt four of these special little dogs. They are each different in many ways but they all bring so much joy to John and I. Thank you Mary and Northcentral Maltese Rescue for everything you do. You truly make a difference!
Ed. note: You make a difference, too, Karen and John!
