Lovely Lola ~ On Trial 25/11/17

Hi I'm Lola and I'm a lovely 4.5 year old Staffy X with a smile that spreads from ear to ear. I have a stunning tan coat and a pretty black face with some cute and expressive Shar-Pei style wrinkles on my forehead. I’m a total people dog as I love spending time with my humans. I also enjoy meeting new people and it doesn’t take long for me to show them my affectionate side.

I'm looking for a furever family who will love my staffy antics and quirks. We think I've got Shar-Pei in my breed mix due to my wrinkly face and small ears but mostly I'm a typical staffy "nugget" in looks. I would love a family who will take me for a daily walk or even a light jog to keep me fit and trim. I'm better at walking on lead now - I used to be very strong but with time, routine and consistency I have improved.

Before coming into foster care I didn't have a lot of positive canine socialisation so I'm best as an only dog. I would thrive in a single dog family with no other pets where my new fur parents will put time into teaching me how to be part of a family. I'm in care with around 100 other dogs at a boarding lodge - I'm fine walking past most of the other dogs behind the fence but due to my previous neglect I'm best to be separated from other dogs. I am treat focused and will gallop over to you for a treat, I respond well to training and would love an environment where positive training techniques are valued as I have had a bit of a rough start to life.

I've have been in a foster home with an older child and we were good mates. I would suit a couple or single, or maybe a family with older dog-confident kids or teenagers. I would also enjoy a good sized yard (5-6 foot fencing) that I can gallop around or sunbake in. My perfect home will be one where I can come in and out of the house when you are home so that I've got companionship from the people I love best - YOU !
