Someone in Richmond Hill please adopt this girl already!!
Kim_87I know, I keep checking to see if she got adopted yet. Someone has to scoop her up!
My neighbour has a lab husky mix and she is the sweetest dog on the street. Lola sounds just like her.
That's such a lovely comparison, and it gives us real hope that Lola will settle right into a loving home just like your neighbour's girl did!
Not sure a husky mix is low energy enough for a quiet routine tbh. Labs sure but huskies are a lot.
It's a valid consideration, and every dog is different, but Lola's calm temperament, noted in her ability to adapt to quiet evenings and car trips, suggests her lab side may be doing a lot of the heavy lifting personality-wise!
Years at a boarding facility is so sad. Really hope she finds her person soon.
carla_w88Years is a long time. You can only imagine how much she just wants a couch to sleep on and a person to cuddle with.
It truly is heartbreaking, but the silver lining is that caring staff kept her safe all that time, and now her perfect family could be just around the corner, as the article notes.
We need more stories like this in local news. Nice to see something positive for once.
Rob SimmondsCompletely agree. Gets tiring seeing only negative stuff. More feel good community stories please.
Sooo pretty. That photo must be even better in person!
Richmond Hill has so many great parks for a dog like her. She would love Phyllis Rawlinson Park for sure.
Linda ChuYes! Phyllis Rawlinson is perfect for a big dog like her. Lots of room to roam and usually pretty friendly dog owners there too.
What a wonderful suggestion, Richmond Hill's expanding green spaces are a big part of why now feels like such a great time to adopt a dog like Lola!
I'm a little skeptical about how well she does with other dogs. Gradual introductions sounds like it needs patience.
That's a fair point, and it's worth emphasizing, the article notes that gradual introductions are recommended precisely so both dogs feel comfortable and confident from the start, which is simply good practice with any large-breed dog.
The part about every visitor sensing her longing for a family got me. Going to show this to my husband tonight.
Husky lab mix is such a cool combo. Bet she has tons of energy on those hiking trails.
She definitely has that adventurous spirit you'd expect from this mix, Richmond Hill's local hiking trails are exactly the kind of outlet that would keep Lola happy and fulfilled!
Does anyone know which rescue this is? I want to go meet her this weekend.
You can find all of Lola's details and contact information for Sue's Rescue through the Petfinder link included at the bottom of the article, we hope you get to meet her soon!
Already house trained AND vaccinated AND spayed? She sounds like a dream dog honestly.
Dave KowalskiHonestly a lot of puppies do not even come this ready. Someone is going to get very lucky with her.
We adopted an older lab mix last spring and it was the best decision we ever made. Give Lola a chance people!
jess_rhThis is so good to hear. How was the adjustment period for you? Ours took a few weeks to really settle in.
Left at a boarding facility for years?? That breaks my heart honestly.
Mike TranSame. The staff clearly cared for her but it is just not the same as having a real home. She deserves so much better.
Lola is absolutely gorgeous. That apricot coat sounds so soft!
Sandy K.Right? Lab mixes with that apricot coloring are so pretty. I saw a photo of her and she looks so sweet.
That soft apricot coat is genuinely one of her most striking features, she's as beautiful in person as she sounds, we're sure!
