Story
Meet Lola — a 4 year old, 10 lb Terrier/Chihuahua mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart! Quick Facts: Name: Lola Breed: Chihuahua/Terrier Mix Age: 4 years old Weight: 10 lbs. House-Trained: Almost there (she just had puppies and is working on it!) Crate-Trained: No (does not like crates) Good with Dogs: Yes (likes select female dogs who match her energy) Good with Cats: Not yet tested Good with Kids: Yes (school-aged kids) Energy Level: High Fence Required: Yes (6 foot privacy fence required) Dog's Location: Bolivia, NC About Lola’s Breed: Our best guess is that Lola is a Chihuahua/Terrier mixed breed. Chihuahua/Terrier mixes are lively, clever, and affectionate little dogs with big personalities. They tend to be energetic, alert, and deeply loyal to their people, often forming strong bonds with their families. Because they’re smart and spirited, they thrive with structure, positive training, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Their ideal home is one that offers consistent routines, daily activity, and lots of companionship. They do especially well with someone who’s home often, enjoys interactive play, and can provide guidance to help them channel their energy in healthy ways. With love, patience, and engagement, Chihuahua/Terrier mixes become devoted, fun, and wonderfully expressive companions. What to Love about Lola: Lola is a lively, loyal little companion who loves her people deeply and bonds quickly. She thrives in a home where someone is around during the day, ready to give her the attention, structure, and playtime she craves. Lola has lots of energy and absolutely loves walks, running in the yard (or rather leaping around like a little deer), and chasing balls! A tall, secured, fenced yard is ideal for her zoomies and outdoor fun. Even though she's only 10 lbs, this cutie pie can jump HIGH, so a 6-foot fence is required to keep her safely in her yard. She’s very smart, eager to learn, and would flourish with someone who can continue her training and provide consistent routines. She knows her name, is learning commands, and is a submissive, easygoing playmate with other dogs. She’d enjoy a home with another playful doggie companion (especially one who can tire her out!), but she’d also do great as an only dog with plenty of human interaction and ample playtime. She adores toys, loves to run, and is wonderful on a leash. She loves her chew bones and squeaky toys (in fact, the squeaker - the better!) Lola is great with all people, including kids, and once she connects with her humans, she sticks by their side with endless affection. She adores getting approval and praise from her humans and one of the greatest things in Lola's world are ear scratches! She's working on her potty training (and improving quickly since weaning her puppies!), and does well when you leave the house (as long as she's not crated - the crate makes her anxious), though she can feel a bit anxious when her people go. Lola is ready for a family who’s active, attentive, and excited to help her shine. With love, structure, and plenty of play, this sweet girl will be the most devoted little companion you could ask for!
