But despite everything, she’s remained what everyone here describes as a truly lovely girl. She’s friendly, affectionate, and full of personality. Lola can be a little shy at first, but give her a little time, and you’ll quickly discover a bright, playful dog who absolutely loves company. She’s become such good fun to spend time with in a field, especially when there’s a game of fetch involved! Lola is very much an “always on the go” kind of dog. She loves her walks, enjoys lots of fuss and attention, and has a wonderfully playful energy. She’s been very well behaved in her kennel, keeps things clean and tidy, and is gaining confidence more and more every day. She may be able to live with another dog who enjoys the same kind of boisterous play style, as she’s shown herself to be very playful when mixing here. However, she’d prefer a home without cats, as her enthusiasm may simply be a bit too much for them. What Lola really deserves now is a home where she can finally relax, have fun, and enjoy being part of a family that sees just how special she is. A second chance, a ball, and someone to love her properly, that’s all this lovely girl is asking for.

About Lola

What life with Lola looks like

Lola is a large adult lurcher dog waiting at RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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. RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire 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 — RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire 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 RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire 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.
