Story
Lola is a beautiful 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her playful spirit. This sweet girl has quite the story—she spent over a month as a stray in her neighborhood, where she quickly won over everyone, especially the local kids. She would happily walk them to and from the bus stop, soaking up all the love, playtime, and snacks they had to offer. It’s clear from the start: Lola adores people, especially children.
Lola is the perfect mix of fun and well-mannered. She loves toys (especially balls!) and will happily play fetch and retrieve to her heart’s content. She also enjoys playing with other dogs and would do great in a home with a canine companion.
She’s both house-trained and kennel-trained, and can relax comfortably in a crate for extended periods without issue. Lola travels well in the car (especially in her crate) and is always up for an adventure—she truly loves going for rides.
Lola is smart and eager to please, showing all the classic German Shepherd traits. She knows her name, responds well to training, and even does well off-leash in appropriate settings like trails. She’s not destructive and doesn’t chew on household items—she’d much rather enjoy a Milk-Bone or a good game of fetch.
While Lola is generally well-behaved in the home, she can be a bit vocal when excited, especially when greeting people or when someone comes to the door. This is typical of her breed and manageable with continued guidance and training. Once she settles, she’s affectionate, attentive, and loves being close to her people.
She has shown that she can coexist with cats and is overall a very adaptable, social dog. Lola has even waded into a pond before—so she might enjoy some water fun—but baths are definitely not her favorite activity!
Lola is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and on prevention, ready to find her forever home.
Ideal Home:
Lola would thrive in an active home where she can get plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention. A family with kids, another playful dog, or someone who enjoys outdoor adventures would be a great match for her.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and playful companion who will stick by your side and keep you smiling, Lola just might be your girl.
