Notes from Worthy Dog Rescue

Meet Lolli!

This sassy budding senior was given away after her owner passed away because the family didn’t want to keep her. It’s sad how disposable dogs can be to some people, but we’re grateful for the chance to help this sweet girl find the loving forever home she truly deserves.

Lolli has fully settled into her local foster home and has proven to be a sweet, well-behaved girl who knows her basic commands. She’s fully housetrained and has never been destructive. She waits to be invited before getting on the furniture, where she’s perfectly content to snuggle and watch TV. She is an excellent passenger in the car and is always excited to take a ride anywhere. Her favorite activity is playing with her toys, which she often initiates on her own.

Lolli is a social pup who enjoys meeting new people and has proven to be grood around kids. She has lived successfully with another dog, but is perfectly happy as an only dog, having her people all to herself. She does have some separation anxiety in new environments, but the good news is that it has steadily improved as she’s settled into her foster home. She would most enjoy an environment with people present throughout the day. However, she can be trusted to be left alone without crating and waits patiently by the door for her people to come back home.

Overall, Lolli has a laid-back energy level and could happily be an only dog or live with another easygoing pup. She walks nicely on leash without pulling, although she can be barky toward some dogs. She has made friends with several dogs in her foster neighborhood, but she’d do best in a quieter, lower-traffic environment...she's not a city dog.

This adorable, scruffy girl has so much life and love left to give, and her best days are still ahead. ❤️

You can also help save dogs like this one by becoming a foster, providing a rescue dog with a temporary home and giving them the love and care they need until they are permanently adopted. Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes. If you think you might be interested in becoming a foster and want to learn more, please go to https://foster.worthydog.org and fill out an application.

Worthy Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that primarily adopts to families in the DC Metro area.
