Please contact Kady Hammer (KadyH@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet girl ISO fresh start and love!LOLLY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Come meet Lolly and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (July 7th) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Alexandria (3351 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22305)! Name: Lolly Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd/Lab mix Best Guess for Age: 4 years as of May 2024 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 34 lbs Gets Along With: Lolly does well with other dogs. Because Lolly is shy, she needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog. Due to her shy personality, we do not recommend her for a home with children under the age of 12.We haven't seen her with cats or kids but she can be tested once she has arrived in the DC area. Currently Living at: DC area foster home. Special adoption considerations: Lolly is from a hoarding/cruelty situation, and was very scared at rescue. Because Lolly is shy, she needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog. Due to her shy personality, we do not recommend her for a home with children under the age of 12. Lolly is Looking For: For a loving home that delivers all the sweet things her rescuers whispered in her ear.... 'You're safe now, sweet girl. The life you deserve starts now. You get lots of love, quality kibble, a cushy dog bed - and a warm lap if you'd like too. You're safe now, sweet girl.' Lolly was rescued from a hoarding/cruelty case and landed in a massive south Texas shelter that routinely has 1200-1500 animals in their care; her chances of being adopted in that area are, well, low to nil. Once she arrives in the DC area, she likely will be nervous in new environments. She is eager to get her own humans - ones who get that she might need extra support during her adjustment and give her all the love and patience she needs. And ones who take her for sniffy walks and all those adventures she's been missing out on - she's in his prime and has lost time to make up for! And what do her humans get in return? An incredibly sweet and loving dog with an enormous stockpile of adoring gazes and loyal companionship to offer the humans in her new chapter. What do you say? Will you help her write it? What My Foster Says About Me: Lolly is still decompressing in our home, but is making progress. She likes to hang out in a corner of our house with a comfy dog bed, blankets and a stuffed bunny. We sit and lay next to her throughout the day while we work from home, giving her scratches and pets. She is still very shy and nervous, but is starting to trust a bit more everyday. Lolly was extremely underweight when we started fostering her, but has been steadily gaining weight. We put water in her meals to help keep her hydrated. She loves her snacks and once she trusts you, she will gently take them out of your hand. Small bites of American cheese is one of her favorites. Lolly hasn't yet mastered the art of walking on a leash. We are working on that, but she will go into our backyard with her leash on to get some exercise. Lolly is doing well with potty training - she will do her business outside as long as you give her plenty of space to walk and sniff around. When Lolly is relaxed, she likes her head and muzzle gently scratched. She is still learning the ways of the world, how to trust humans and play with other dogs, so she'll need someone who has the love and the patience to continue her socialization and training. Lolly is definitely a sweet and gentle soul. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
