Meet Lola!
Lola is a stunning Dutch Shepherd / Belgian Malinois mix with big feelings, bigger opinions, and a whole lot of love for her people. She’s high-energy, wildly affectionate, and fully committed to being involved in everything you do. Lola is extremely food motivated, very smart, and thrives when her brain and body are kept busy—this is not a “throw a ball twice and call it a day” kind of girl.
Lola adores stuffed toys and believes they exist solely to be disassembled. Expect occasional stuffing “offerings” around the house as proof of her dedication. She’s also a proud vocal girl who loves to announce her excitement (we blame the husky influence in her foster home and take zero responsibility). Due to her strong prey drive, Lola requires a cat-free home—she will absolutely apply for the job of Professional Cat Supervisor and take it far too seriously.
With other dogs, Lola is friendly but… enthusiastic. She’s socially forward and still working on polite dog manners, so she would do best as an only dog or with a very patient, tolerant older dog who can calmly say, “ma’am, please relax.” Lola does well with children and currently lives with kids ages 7 and 13, though slow, respectful introductions are best since she can be a little nervous at first.
Lola is mostly potty trained and doing well with kennel training. She may lodge a formal complaint for about 10–15 minutes when first kenneled, followed by a dramatic sigh and a full-body collapse into the side of the kennel like a sack of potatoes. Once the performance concludes, she settles and relaxes. She sleeps in her kennel overnight and can comfortably stay in it for a few hours at a time.
Lola is looking for an active, committed home that appreciates a little chaos, a lot of personality, and a dog who will love you with her whole entire being. With structure, consistency, and proper outlets for her energy, Lola will be an unbelievably loyal, hilarious, and loving companion.
