Lola Feist Mix Fenton, MI

Lola is approximately 4 years old and 15 lbs. She came from an outside hoarding situation so she is currently working on her housetraining, leash walking, and enjoying human touch. We are looking for a patient family with older children or no children, a physical fence, another confident dog, and experience with scared dogs. These things will help keep her safe and get more comfortable as she learns how to be a companion dog in a home. This may take month until she is totally comfortable living in a home. This is a true rescue.

The adoption fee of $300 includes spay/neuter, rabies vaccine, distemper/parvo combination vaccine, bordetella vaccine, deworming, heartworm test, heartworm preventative, flea preventative, a dental cleaning if necessary, and a microchip.

Often there is very little known about our dogs' and puppies' history or even current habits. We are best guessing on breed blends. We can't guarantee there is or isn't a specific breed in their breed blend.

You can always expect to do training, regardless of whether you adopt a dog or a puppy, including crate training, house training, and basic manners. Expect a 10+ year financial, physical, and emotional commitment to this canine. We provide a variety of materials and resources to assist you with this. All dogs and especially puppies are a lot of work and a long financial commitment. Please research what it means to have a dog and make sure a dog is still going to be an important part of your life in 10-15 years. All dogs and puppies need a lot of patience and guidance.

Most dogs who are in shelters will need an adjustment period after adoption. No matter how nice our shelter is and how much attention they get from our volunteers, it is not a home and they will need time to acclimate and get rid of some nervous energy.
