Miss Lulu Brinkley

      As many of you know our daughter saved a lab/german shepherd mix a couple of weeks ago on the way home from her older sisters concert.  I was shocked  that my husband actually aided her in her mission.  Is he getting a little more compassionate for dogs in his middle age????  My kids have always begged him to rescue poor animals that they have seen on the sides of roads and he has not once given in to their merciful pleadings.  Nevertheless, something was different with this dog.  We called the Humane Society several times daily in attempt to find the dog's owners.  They actually knew us by name.  I even took Lulu there twice.  

     The Humane Society kept assuring us that no one had call and that they did not have a crate for Lulu to sit in 24-7.  The Humane Society kept urging us to keep the dog if we had any fondness for her.  Well in a nutshell, that is just what we did.  (well, kind of, in a round about way....) 

     First Lulu was going to stay with my husbands parents, who didnt like the name LULU. ( Origin German/Female, meaning : Famous in Battle)  Apparently, from younger sources, I have heard my nephew named Lulu, "FLICKA."  When I think of Flicka, I tend to think of , FLICKA my BICa...the lighter or Flicka by Booger.

     Lulu eventually returned back to our home when it was determined she was a wee rough.  Indeed she has that tendency but ONLY when it is playtime!  Thankfully, my husband's parents were gracious and welcomed our little fox.  I welcomed the trade.  I have always wanted a BIG dog like LULU BRINKLEY.  There has not been a day that I have not regretted by husband's  decision to help our youngest daughter by saving Lulu that late evening.
