Lola - Shepherd and Hound Dog for Adoption in South Plainfield, New Jersey

Meet Lola!

If your dream dog is equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle companion, then Lola is ready to steal your heart!

Estimated to be 1 year old and weighing 45 pounds, Lola is a playful, happy girl with a heart full of love. She absolutely adores her people and wants nothing more than to be part of whatever you're doing—whether that's heading out for a long hike, relaxing in the backyard, or curling up at home after a day of fun.

Lola is wonderful with kids (elementary age and up would be an ideal match!) and loves other dogs. She's still a little shy when meeting new people, but with a little patience, her sweet, affectionate personality shines through. Cats, however, aren't really her thing.

This smart girl is house trained, crate trained, and rarely barks. Around the house she's surprisingly calm, but once it's time to explore, her adventurous side comes alive! She has the energy and stamina to join you on hikes, walks, and all kinds of outdoor adventures. A fenced yard where she can safely soak up the sunshine would be a dream come true.

Like any young pup, Lola has a mischievous streak—if you leave your shoes or other treasures lying around, she may decide they're her newest chew toy! Keeping tempting items picked up is all part of life with this lovable girl.

Lola would thrive with an active family who will include her in everyday life, continue building her confidence, and give her all the love she's so eager to return. She's the kind of dog who will happily follow you anywhere—as long as she gets to be by your side.

Could Lola be the missing piece your family has been waiting for?
