Lola

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

8/10/26 – Lola is Reserved. Cute, little Lola is a Crossbreed who has come into the care of Foal Farm Animal Rescue in Kent due to the ill health of her owner who could no longer care for her. She was signed over to the local authority so little is known about her previous life, but she does her best to keep her kennel clean and settles well. Lola deserves to be in a loving home now and kennels are no place for her. Lola is an 11 year old Crossbreed lady who still acts like a 5 year old. She has a real spring in her step and loves going for a walk. She has been friendly with everyone that she meets and is a very loving girl who enjoys sitting on your lap. Lola would like an adult-only home with patient adopters who will take the time to get to know her personality and her quirks. It's not known whether she has had a bad experience previously with handling which is why she can be defensive, but the Rescue will guide adopters on how to help Lola feel more confident being handled. She just needs a family who have patience and will take the time to build trust and not push her, as she really is a sweet girl who will be a loving companion. Out and about, Lola is a joy to walk. She can also be picky about which dogs she likes, some she will ignore but others she may bark at. She would be best suited to a new home where she is the only pet and her new owners may need to gently expose her to different dogs, as perhaps socialising is something she has not been used to. Lola isn’t always keen on being handled. Whilst she enjoys affection, when it comes to seeing the vet she can be snappy. She is also not a fan of her nails being clipped or being groomed. On arrival, she had some knots behind her ears that she wouldn’t allow anyone to touch and she does not like a muzzle being put on. However, with patience and the help of some cheese, she did eventually allow them to be cut out. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ If you would like to give little Lola the forever home she deserves, please contact Foal Farm below Fill in Foal Farm’s online application form – click here . Email: Please mention you saw Lola on the Oldies Club website.

About Lola

What life with Lola looks like

Lola is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at The Oldies Club in United Kingdom.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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. The Oldies Club 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 — The Oldies Club 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 The Oldies Club 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.
