 Here's what you need to know about me:

I'm an active dog! I would love to go home with a family who can help me burn off energy with exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures.

I can be shy in new spaces. I need a family who will let me take things at my own pace as I learn about new things. Once I come out of my shell, I have lots of love to give.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

SQUIRT" #85130  neutered male 11 yrs 3 mths 29 lbs

  $26 Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Corgi, Pembroke

 I can be nervous around new people. It just takes me a little while to get comfortable. But once I get to know you, I'm very loving.

I'd like a relaxed home. I wouldn't say I'm "old"... I've just been around for a while. And that's made me appreciate the finer things in life like naps in the sun, looking out windows, and the special joy when you're able to scratch juuuuust the right spot. I like to take it easy at home - I'm not up for lots of activity.

I'd like a home where my family is home often. I'm just really social and love spending time with people, I prefer to not be left alone for long periods.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

Meet Lola, a little older lady with soulful eyes, and a heart full of gentle sweetness! 🐾💖 Like many classic Chihuahuas, Lola experiences the world with a little extra caution-she can be timid in new environments, startles at loud noises, and takes a moment to build up her bravery around new faces. 🥺✨ Once she realizes she is safe, her nervous exterior melts away to reveal a fiercely loyal, tender cuddle bug who simply wants to be your warm shadow, burrowing deep beneath fleece blankets, resting her tiny chin on your lap. 🛋️🧣 Lola is looking for a calm, predictable home where she can take life at her own quiet pace, soak up gentle praise, and spend her golden years being the cherished center of someone's universe. 🏡🌸🥰
