Hello! Lola is doing great!! She is so smart it blows my mind. She loves to play and has about a million toys, since she stole all the cat’s toys. She loves to run and roll/flip in the yard, I think she’s a gymnast. She is very well behaved, she does pee a LOT! She goes pee and poop outside but she has a bad habit of peeing on my son’s bottom bunk bed, we are working on it. Her appetite is like a teenage boy. She eats a ton, I’ve had to tell my husband to decrease the amount we have in her bowl all the time. She is very happy and so loved in her home. I am so glad to have her join our family. A dog really makes a house feel like home.
