Lola
American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed · Adult (5 years 9 months) · Female · Medium · Lockport, NY
Notes from Diamonds in the Ruff Animal Rescue
Meet Lola
Lola is a
petite black Pit Bull with a big personality and an even bigger heart!
She is a fun, curious girl who gets excited about the world around her and loves experiencing new things.
Lola is an active girl who
enjoys long walks
and exploring with her person. She also absolutely
loves playing in the sprinkler!
She is very social and curious.
Chickens, rabbits, squirrels, and other dogs
can all catch her attention and get her excited. She will need a family who understands her enthusiasm and is willing to continue working with her on appropriate introductions, impulse control, and calm behavior around exciting distractions.
Because Lola gets excited very quickly,
a home with older children is recommended
. Older kids who understand how to remain calm and follow directions will be the best fit for her.
One of Lola’s biggest challenges is
separation anxiety
. She becomes anxious when her person is not around, so she is looking for a home that can help her build confidence and learn that being alone is okay. A patient family who can provide consistency, structure, and gradual independence will be important for her.
Despite this challenge, Lola is a
sweet, energetic, playful, and curious girl who loves being with her people
. She is looking for a family who will give her the patience, guidance, exercise, and positive training she needs to continue growing into the wonderful companion she can be.
Lola would do best with:
Older children
who understand her energetic personality
A patient and understanding family
Someone willing to work with her separation anxiety
A family who enjoys
long walks and outdoor activities
Continued training and confidence building
Slow, controlled introductions to other animals
Structure, consistency, exercise, and positive attention
Lola may be petite, but she has plenty of personality!
She is ready to find her person and a family who will help her learn, grow, and enjoy life to the fullest.
We will sponsor training for her once we find her a foster.
