Do you have an “empty nest”? Are you looking for some handsome boy companionship? Great news, your search is over!
In addition to my very dapper good-boy looks, I am also an avid ball player and dignified goofball. You may be thinking how in the world I can posses such conflicting personality traits…well I am definitely very regal in my looks and initial demeanor…but once I let my hair down (the shed is real, am I right?) and create a bond with my person, I reveal my more quirky attributes!
I love being outdoors; you could even say that I am easily amused. Whether it be playing fetch to my heart’s desire or going for a long trail walk (I would probably make a pretty good jogging buddy too). If you have a boat with an empty seat, count me in because I LOVE to swim! Being a German Shepherd, I am one of the ‘brighter crayons in the box’. In my free time I like to work with the staff and volunteers to brush up on my basic command skills. They are always telling me what a smart guy I am! Well…I assume that’s what they are saying, judging by the treats they give me, I am doing good!
Proper introductions to establish a trusting, positive, first impression is a must with me. I am an old fashioned kind of guy. I know I am irresistibly handsome, but I appreciate getting to know each other before getting all touchy-feely. Because of this, I would be happiest in a home without children (or other wondering hands). I do love affection and a good ear rub….but a mutual respect needs to be established first. I also want to be your only side-kick, I am not a social butterfly with other pets, I would much rather hangout with just my person. I have a pretty strong prey drive to keep the stray cat and pesky squirrels out of our yard too….A job I take very seriously.
If you are in the market for a dashing side-kick to rid the yard of vermin, submit your adoption application to see if we are a match!

Lola is a petite 45 pound, 1 year old German Shepherd mix with the most beautiful face and the kindest heart. She has had a sad start to her young life and it’s taken her a few weeks to really come out of her shell. She is very smart and food motivated. She would love someone to do training with her. Lola’s very affectionate, loves toys, snacks, and movie time with her humans. She’s happy being active with you or playing with her toys while you relax. Lola is house trained and crate trained. With her still being a pup and needing some training we think a home without young children would be best. She probably wouldn’t do great with cats, but we really don’t know. She loves playing with other dogs. Lola is spayed and up to date on shots. Her adoption fee is $250. To adopt Lola, submit an application at www.rescueofhope.com/adoption-application.
