Lulu The Dog Was Offered The Job Of A Lifetime… She Wasn’t Interested

The CIA’s Twitter account does a #CIAK9 series of tweets…. and it’s everything.

Seriously adorable.

Their latest tugged at my heart, because let’s be honest here…. we’ve all been Lulu at some point in our lives. I know I have.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the story of Lulu.  Every lazy girl’s spirit animals.

#CIAK9 Pupdate:
Sometimes, even after testing, our pups make it clear being an explosive detection K9 isn’t for themhttps://t.co/nPZl6YWNKb pic.twitter.com/07TXRCH7bp

 Can’t blame her. Explosive detection isn’t for me, either.

We’re sad to announce that a few weeks into training, Lulu began to show signs that she wasn’t interested in detecting explosive odors. pic.twitter.com/c6lxHPfC09

 Lulu doesn’t LIKE bomb smells, you guys! Lulu is more the ~creative~ type!

All dogs, like humans, have good & bad days when learning something new.
Same for our pups, though it usually lasts just a day or two. pic.twitter.com/z9lQa2uKX4

 TELL ME ABOUT IT. I have bad WEEKS!!

There are a million reasons why a dog has a bad day & our trainers must become doggy psychologists to figure out what will help pups. pic.twitter.com/iaeRpGiSUR

 ….I wanna be a doggy psychologist! Sign me up!

Sometimes a pup is bored & needs extra playtime, sometimes they need a little break, or it’s a minor medical condition like a food allergy. pic.twitter.com/pPaBPohhqB

 Everyone needs a little extra playtime. Duh.

For some dogs, after weeks of working w them, it’s clear the issue isn’t temporary & instead, this just isn’t the job they are meant for. pic.twitter.com/bBjPz8Ng2U

 THIS IS NOT LULU’S CALLING, OK! SHE WANTS TO BE AN ARTIST!

Lulu wasn’t interested in searching for explosives.
Even when motivated w food & play, she was clearly no longer enjoying herself. pic.twitter.com/puvhDk1tRX

 again…  not her calling.

Our trainers’ top concern is physical & mental well-being of K9s.
They made difficult decision & did what’s best for Lulu: stop her training pic.twitter.com/Ss9y9LpE9q

 LULU! YOU DID IT, YOU LAZY QUEEN!

When a pup is removed or retires from our K9 program, the handler & their family is given the chance to adopt them & many do. pic.twitter.com/EMfua7zhbT

Lulu was adopted by her handler & now enjoys her days playing w his kids & a new friend, & sniffing out rabbits & squirrels in the backyard. pic.twitter.com/WOImM75P1D

We’ll miss Lulu, but it was right decision for her & we wish her all the best in her new life!https://t.co/nPZl6YWNKb pic.twitter.com/Mbcr9C7wUY

 OMG – Lulu the Lazy Girl got the best possible ending.

Lulu’s handler still needs a #K9 partner. Tomorrow we’ll introduce you to newest member of our Fall 2017 Puppy Class.
