Feb. 12 (UPI) -
- A Tennessee dog is living the comfortable life after inheriting $5 million from her late owner, who stipulated in his will that his money should go to his pet.
Lulu, an 8-year- old border collie, was named in the will of owner Bill Dorris, a
Nashville busi- nessman who died late last year at age 84.
Martha Burton, 88, a neighbor who often cared for Lulu while Dorris was away, was named as the canine's care- taker in Dorris' will, which states Burton will be reimbursed for "reasonable" monthly expens- es.
"I don't really know what to think about it to tell you the truth. He just really loved the dog," Burton told WTVF-TV.
Burton said she is perfectly happy to act as Lulu's caretaker.
"She's a good girl," she said.
