Lolita

My story

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: joshuahtrescue@gmail.com PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ LOCATION: Foster ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Joshua ADOPTION FEE: $475. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. **Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training and other discounts! I'm a new mom to four puppies, and taking care of them has been my focus since arriving in my new foster home. Those four puppies are taking all my time right now now, but as my puppies get older I am excited to start spending more time with people (I love people) and learning fun tricks and other stuff about being a house dog. One of my favorite things is when people rub my ears and I know how to ask politely for ear rubs, I put my head in the nearest person's lap! A lot of things are new to me, like riding in the car and walking on a leash. But don’t worry, I love both of those things! Especially calm strolls through my quiet suburban neighborhood, I don’t pull except when there is something really exciting, like a small animal or a dog I want to meet. Sometimes new people make me nervous, especially men. But if you have one of my favorite treats, I will be your newest friend right away. Do you want to find out how you be my new best friend?
