Lulu, a 3-legged dog

Family reunited with missing three-legged dog

A Scott's Hill family that has been desperately searching for its dog for weeks was reunited with her today.

The Wirsen's said a neighbor saw a woman take Lulu from their front yard two weeks ago. The woman who took the dog called the Pender County sheriff's office after seeing the missing dog's picture.

A detective returned Lulu to her family this evening.

Lulu was not wearing a collar with identification and the woman told detectives she thought Lulu's flea collar was on too tight.

The family is just happy to have part of the family back.

Christine Wirsen, Lulu’s owner said, "It's awesome, we've been so worried about her and just every day my mind is just constantly thinking about her, my son's been asking about her and it's just been tough. We are definitely excited and happy and I think she's a little overwhelmed right now."

Since the woman who took Lulu called detectives to turn the dog in, she will not face charges.
