Lola

Mixed Breed · Female

Lola is a bright, cheerful pup who brings a lovely mix of playfulness and affection. She was rescued with her mum, Lilly, and her siblings after they were born safely in our care, and she’s grown into a confident, happy little girl. She especially enjoys being around children and really comes to life when there’s fun and activity going on. Whether it’s joining in a game or simply being part of the family, Lola thrives on interaction and loves to be included. Alongside her playful side, she has a gentle nature and a friendly, sociable approach to both people and other dogs. She’s expected to grow into a medium-sized dog and would suit a home where she can be part of everyday life and enjoy plenty of companionship. Lana is the smallest of her litter & likely to grow to around dogs 12 -14kg when fully grown As a charity, we generally look to place our dogs in homes where children are over the age of 10. However, we can consider younger children where there is already a well-balanced dog in the home to help guide and support. With her loving personality and playful spirit, Lola is sure to make a wonderful addition to the right family home. Most of our dogs have been found abandoned as young pups, discarded as unwanted litters, as is often the case in Portugal where neutering is not as common as in the UK. After rescue, all of our pups spend time in private shelters and foster homes, meaning they arrive happy, healthy and well socialised. UK Registered Charity Number 1183775

About Lola

What life with Lola looks like

Lola is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs N Homes Rescue in London.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lola, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lola?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs N Homes Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lola on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lola if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs N Homes Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Lola already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Lola isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Dogs N Homes Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lola and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
