Lulu Bell is a 2-year-old terrier mix who is super affectionate, smart, sweet and playful. Lulu was found in November severely malnourished, had demodex mange (no fur) and couldn’t open her eyes. She ended up having surgery on both her eyelids. After some tender loving care, her fur returned, and she gained some weight; she currently weighs 50 pounds. She is now healthy, happy, walks well on a leash and loves to be near people. To meet Lulu Bell, email hopefultailsadoptions@outlook.com. Visit hopefultailsanimalrescue.org.
