My personality

My story

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

Meet Lolly!
Nickname: Lollipop!
Fun Fact: Lolly enjoys her spa days, so baths are no problem!
Rescue: Albert's Dog Lounge
Age: Senior
Weight: 24 lbs
Health issues: Lolly has rough skin but it is improving with monthly allergy shots and medicated baths a couple times a week
History: Lolly was taken from her owner in a neglect case, and made her way to Wisconsin from Tennessee
Foster home: Elkhorn, WI
Activity level: Low
Friendly with: Other dogs and older, respectful children
Sleep style: Lolly sleeps in a dog bed, or in our people bed
Meals: Purina Pro Plan stomach (1/3 cup 2x day) with some toppers and Nutriol with dinner. She likes chicken jerky treats
Bark-o-meter: 4/10 (she barks at shadows and things we humans cannot see)
Shedding meter: 0/10, but as her lovely soft hair grows in, she will likely need regular grooming.
Fashion: Cowboy Chic. Give her a fringed vest and some boots!
Signature color: Sky blue would pop against my fur!
Walk out song: "Cowboy Take Me Away" by the Chicks
Favorite season: Fall! There is nothing like the smell of the crisp air, the crunch of fallen leaves below your feet, and football weekends!
Best feature: Silky soft fur
Signature Move: Barking at the wind
Love Language: Cuddles. She just loves to be with you and get your attention
Lovely Lolly came to Wisconsin struggling to walk one block. She is now walking almost a mile!

Additional adoption info

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue providing compassionate care to special needs, senior, and hospice dogs.

Our adoption process begins with a completed application. From there, we will review references and vet records. The next step is a home visit with your family. This visit may be in person or virtual.  At that point, if approved, we will set up a meet and greet with available dogs.

All dogs have an adoption fee of $275 for a single dog or $500 for (bonded) pair, unless otherwise noted.

Note: Pairs must be adopted at the same time to get the reduced adoption fee.​

-Applications with incomplete information will not be processed.
- All current dogs in the home must be spayed or neutered, up to date on rabies vaccination, up to date on DHLPP, up to date on Heartworm testing and preventative.
- All cats in the home must be spayed or neutered and up to date on a rabies vaccination or wellness exam.
- None of our dogs will be adopted to prospective owners who mislead or fail to provide accurate information on the adoption application and/or the adoption contract. Albert's Dog Lounge reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone.
- You must agree that if you are no longer able to keep your rescue dog for whatever reason, the dog will be returned to Albert's Dog Lounge. The adopter must agree to never attempt to sell or rehome the dog at any point.

Our goal is to place our seniors into permanent, loving homes for the rest of their golden years.

More about this rescue

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue focused on providing loving homes to seniors, special needs, and hospice dogs. We help dogs in need from overcrowded shelters and also from local families who are no longer able to care for their pets.

Albert's Dog Lounge was established in 2017 with the vision to be the stepping stone to a new life for those dogs who are less likely to be rescued, adopted, or at a higher risk for euthanasia.
