My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

If you are interested in adopting this dog,  please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic
You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.

Dog's Name:  Lola (LOL0223OWSFS)
Estimated Breed:   Pit Bull Terrier mix
Approximate Age:  1 year
Approximate Weight:   30 lbs
Currently Living at::   Foster
Adoption Fee:   $400


DOG'S DESCRIPTION:   Lola is not just a dog; she's a bundle of joy waiting to brighten your days! This lovely girl is a pro at charming everyone with her sweet and affectionate nature. Lola is great with kids, making her the perfect addition to a family that values the companionship of a furry friend. Lola comes with a set of impressive skills—crate trained, housebroken, and knowledgeable about basic commands. She's a smart pup, eager to learn more and please her future family.

While Lola enjoys the company of other dogs, she tends to shine brightest when surrounded by pals of her own size or larger. She dreams of being the star of her forever home, but she's open to playdates to keep the social interactions flowing. A fenced backyard is a must for Lola as she's brimming with energy and ready to explore her surroundings. Imagine the joy of having this lively companion waiting for you every day with that heartwarming smile!

For the perfect match, we are looking for an adopter who is familiar with Lola's breed and can provide the structure and training she thrives on. If you're ready for a lifetime of love, laughs, and a wagging tail, Lola is your girl! Don't miss the chance to make Lola a cherished member of your family. Contact us to meet Lola and embark on a journey filled with paw-some adventures!

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.       

Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.org

Additional adoption info

The adoption process is almost always completed within one week of time you submitted your questionnaire (times can vary depending on your location, the dog’s location, and availability). Please, note that we do receive large number of applications for certain litters, and as much as we would like to, we can't always get back to everyone. We appreciate your understanding as all volunteer run organization.

Fill out an adoption questionnaire, found at https://k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt (please note, completion of the Adoption Questionnaire does not guarantee adoption- it is the first step in our adoption process).

· An adoption counselor will call you to review your application.

· The adoption counselor will call your reference, landlord/condo association, and veterinarian (if applicable).

· The entire household should be willing and present for a home visit.

· The adoption counselor will schedule a time for you, your family, and any other pets to meet the dog(s) you've applied for.

Once approved, you will need to finalize your adoption by completing an adoption contract and paying the adoption fee in cash or check. At that time, available medical records will be provided along with a variety of other information.

· Puppy (6 months and younger) - $500

More about this rescue

K-9 Lifesavers is an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit organization that rescues homeless and abandoned dogs. We save canines that are scheduled for euthanasia from high kill shelters, where there are typically held only for 3-7 days. K-9 Lifesavers also strives to educate the importance of responsible dog ownership, including spay/neuter, training, and pet nutrition.

K-9 Lifesavers relies primarily upon our dedicated foster families since we do not operate a shelter. These homes provide loving, temporary care until our rescues find their forever homes. We are always looking for foster families.

Please visit our website at www.k-9lifesavers.org for additional information about K-9 Lifesavers. The website lists our available dogs, volunteer opportunities, foster information, and various ways to donate.

Please help us rescue more canines waiting for their second chance at life with a forever home! Adopt a rescue, foster, volunteer, or donate!
