Description:

Hello! I am Quartz’s foster mom. We call her Lola and she is a darling girl. Lola can be shy with new people and places, but she adjusts quickly. And don’t confuse her shyness with fear. This little girl is anything but fearful!

Lola is curious about everything and loves to explore. We have two dogs of our own. She has won over our english pointer, who lets Lola (and her brother Agate, who is also up for adoption) climb all over her. Our other dog, a 70 pound doberman-mx is playing hard to get. But that hasn’t stopped Lola from trying. From Lola’s point of view, it’s just a matter of time before she wears our dog down and they become best friends. Lola just doesn’t give up.

As of Thanksgiving, Lola weighs about 13 pounds. She is the largest of the “gemstone litter.” She has long legs and a lean body. She looks like a deer. We predict that she will weigh about 30-35 pounds as an adult.

Lola is super food motivated, which makes training easy. She is learning basic commands and how to walk on a leash. Lola loves her kennel, but is still having accidents in it. (We think that’s because it’s too big for her). Overall house training is going well. Lola knows to go to the door when she needs to potty. But sometimes she gets too busy playing with her brother and forgets.

Lola loves being outside…rain, snow, or shine. It’s all good for Lola. When Lola gets tired, she will climb in your lap with a toy and chew on it. This little girl is such a love bug, full of hugs and kisses. Although Lola has plenty of energy, she is a pretty easy-going pup. We predict that Lola will need daily exercise, but not as much as some dogs (like her brother, Agate). So if you’re looking for a sweet, laid-back little lady, Lola might be the perfect pup for you.

*NOTE* Pups this young should not be left alone for more than 4 hours at a time to help them with housetraining and socialization.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
