Lulu Is Scotch Plains-Fanwood's Pet Of The Week

SCOTCH PLAINS/FANWOOD, NJ — Meet Lulu! She has been chosen as Scotch Plains-Fanwood Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Lulu turned 7 months on St Patrick’s Day. Lulu lives in Fanwood with my parents, me, and my sister. She brought our family together. She’s a happy puppy, especially when we play with her. She likes fetching her Frisbee and toys, and snuggling on our laps.

We spend more time together as a family because we all take care of her. We take her on walks, and it lets us have more time to talk to each other. One of our family members used to be so scared of dogs. And now she cuddles with Lulu and is happy to be around most dogs.

We spend more time hanging out around Lulu, too. We love Lulu and all she has done for our family. That’s why I think she should be Pet of the Week."

— By 11-year-old Carolyn of Fanwood
