Meet 'Lulu', born October 2007 and started her first day at work at 9 weeksof age in December.
She knows her job is to meet and greet customers and visitors
and to look cute doing it ~ she really does it very well. She is the perfect
'shop dog.' .
Lulu is a Portuguese Water Dog, weighing in at 50 lbs.She celebrated her second birthday on October 10th, 2009.
One of Lulu's official responsibilities is to be the perfect hostess at our monthly garden soiree "Yappy Hour" on the Second Friday of each month from 5-8pm. Go to our Special Events page for details. We welcome well behaved leashed dogs for a "doggie meet and greet." Many months we have special guests to entertain two-legged and four-legged friends.
Lulu has a big brother, Mocha, who is a10 year old Porty who also works - he protects the house while we are hard at work at the shop.Both are avid swimmers, beach bums and love to play in the garden.
At right, Princess Lulu reclines in the gardenART garden in
her favorite recycled adirondack chair.
