About Lola Wilberforce
TO APPLY FOR ADOPTION PLEASE SEND IN APPLICATION FORM AVAILABLE BELOW:
https://www.victoriandogrescue.org.au/adopt/
Lola Wilberforce is a delightful girl who is always on the lookout for cuddles. If she could cuddle you all day she would! She is easy going and so well behaved.
She is calm around the home and generally when out and about. Lola is fine with all dogs however she does become concerned when approached by a large dog who is off-lead when she is not and will demonstrate her popular hound bark. After a sniff and realising she is safe Lola does relax.
Lola is an intelligent girl who understands basic commands and has several extra tricks (bang, roll, spin, middle, pretty). She is very smart and would love further training. Due to her breed, she might yawn and stretch and consider it before complying though. Lola’s relaxed look could fool you - she is energetic when called upon and enjoys going for runs. She also recently tried paddleboarding and did not want to get off the board!
After a few weeks in her new home, you would be able to leave Lola for 5-6 hours, but she will need to stay indoors as she is known to jump 7ft fences to explore the neighbourhood.
Lola’s new home will be cat-free as she isn’t keen on them. At this stage we feel she will do well sharing her family with another dog and will have her humans around most of the time.
Lola has so much love to offer and giving this beautiful soul a forever home will be a decision you most certainly won’t regret!

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped,
wormed, and flea treated. All necessary vetwork such as dentals,
surgery, eye treatment are also carried out. We are no longer heartworm
testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If
a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer free assistance for six weeks for any issues, a lifetime takeback policy with full refund of the adoption fee, and will always be available to offer advice.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.

Commonly asked questions and their answers are provided when you email us.

We look forward to receiving your application.
