Lola Lovebug the Kid-Friendly gentle girl

My story

If you’re looking for a perfect little fur-baby, look no further. A friend to all, a lover to her core, an exceptionally trainable and well-behaved girl, Lola wins your heart in an instant, and feels like a family member the moment she steps paw in your home. Fall in love with Lola here: https://youtu.be/nvCCjmAowxc?si=5IzDoIhRSW9rAFkB Lola Lovebug is a dainty little Pittie/Staffie mix with these big brown “pet me” eyes. She has an adorable habit of perching her chin on the edge of your couch, the corner of your bed, or even on your knees, and gazing up at you until you pay attention to her. She really does feel more like a human child than a dog, she’s a total “fur baby,” “doghter,” “baby dog” type of pup. She’s estimated to be around 7 years old but don't let that fool you, age is just a number and she's got a young heart and grown up manners. She's in her golden glow era. Lola is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. We believe Lola would make a great dog for a family with kids too. She has been around kids ages 4, 6, and 11 and her loving and gentle approach with adults is the exact same in her interactions with kids. She was a total sweetheart with them, took treats so gently from them, and was even listening to them when they would give her a command. Lola was not bothered by all the jumping, screaming, random movements, grabbing hands, running around, and all of the chaos that comes with being in a room with young kids. If you have kids, then you know exactly what we're talking about LOL. Even in those high energy moments with kids running around and when you're rushing to gather all the supplies/backpacks/school lunches, etc. the last thing anyone is going to want is a dog that is going to add to that mayhem. With Lola, you're not going to have to worry about that whatsoever. She is so relaxed in those moments and just watches everything going on around her or she's just walking around wagging her tail. It does not phase her one bit! She's such a good girl and she didn't even try to play with any of the kids toys! Which if you have kids, then you know that's a meltdown waiting to happen if a dog messes with their favorite toy LOL. She never once jumped on them for affection nor was she over the top with her affection towards the kids. She was would give gentle kisses and would lean into them for affection in the sweetest most gentle way. Lola's easy going laid back approach in life is perfect for a family with kids. Lola is dog friendly and enjoys the company of other dogs that have the same cool, calm, and collected tempo as her. She's not a playful lady with other dogs and prefers to just hangout and enjoy those relaxing moments with other dogs. Lola is a polite little lady passing other dogs on walks and is easy to tandem walk with other dogs too that she knows. Her current foster lives in an apartment and Lola's foster has said that she doesn't mind passing by other dogs walking down those tighter apartment hallways. In a home, she would do best with a male doggy sibling that is calm like her, enjoys lounging around, and will be a gentleman with her and allow her time to feel comfortable with him. Lola would also thrive as your one and only fur baby as well and we believe she might be happiest being the center of your attention. She does not need the company of another dog to feel comfortable nor does she need another dog in the home to fulfill her energy needs. Lola loves everyone she meets and bonds very quickly with people and she is the definition of a house hippo LOL. She would also do best in a home with out any kitty friends as well. Lola is also ah-may-zing, amazing on leash. This girl showed us great leash manners here at the rescue, and enjoys frequent walks about the neighborhood with her foster mom. She’s super friendly with everyone she meets on walks too, and enjoys the extra attention that new friends always seem to bring. She would love to go on little adventures with you, errands and park days and patio restaurant dates. She’s great in the car too, and sits up in the backseat looking out the window. Lola is a smart gal and is incredibly trainable, she already knows some basic commands such as “sit,” and “lay down,” and her foster mom says all the time that she is a joy to teach new things too and is so eager to please. She is crate trained and potty trained and has wonderful house manners too, never getting into things she's not suppose to be. If your life is more chill than adventurous, Lola is an expert snuggler, and really thoroughly enjoys couch naps and lazy mornings in bed. She’ll happily accompany you for a full Saturday movie marathon, and snuggle all day if you want. She has a perfectly balanced energy, leaning more towards couch potato type with a love for neighborhood walks and a few games of fetch her and there. Also, bonus points, if you’re not a fan of dogs on the couch or the bed- that’s okay too, Lola’s favorite spots to nap are in her crate, outside, or in a puddle of sunlight indoors. She loves to sunbathe, and she is perfectly content in her kennel. Lola does have a playful side to her too and loves those sweet playful moments with her people. She loves to play with toys, especially those soft and squishy squeaky toys, hard chews, or tennis balls. She’ll play fetch with you, with frequent breaks to roll in the grass or sniff a new spot. Lola is a once-in-a-lifetime perfect pup, and ready for her forever home. She is so cool, calm and collected on leash, and so friendly and well behaved. She’s not too picky about your home - she just wants your love. Lola enjoys being outside and would thrive in a home with a yard where she can play fetch on occasion and soak in the sun. She also would do great in an apartment as well. We know this because as stated before she is currently fostered in an apartment on the first floor and has no issues with the apartment life. We are willing to test the lovely Lola with anything you need us to in order to ensure she is the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success. Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress! Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet. The rescue’s hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that Three Little Pitties Rescue is not government funded. It doesn’t stop there!

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
