Lola

Female · Young · 2 years

Lola is looking for a calm and predictable home with loving and active adopters who can take her on sniffy adventures in quieter walking areas and give her all the love and attention she deserves. She is a friendly bean who could live with older primary school children who will play with her nicely and will give her space to rest when needed. Lola likes dogs but needs all of the attention and toys to herself, she would be happy with polite and friendly walking buddies. She can be encouraged to learn new skills especially if a tasty treat is on offer. Lola would like a home with a private secure garden where she can explore at her leisure and have zoomies when needed. Lola can settle nicely as long as there is a comfy sofa to snuggle up on, she could be left for up to 4 hours, any leaving time would need to be built up slowly once she has had time to settle into her new home. Lola is currently taking medication and is on a special diet for her skin and will need to meet her adopters a few times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying. Sweet and fluffy girl Lola is a 2 and a half year old West Highland Terrier who loves to explore on her walks. She absolutely loves to play, she will chase around after a ball or throw her soft toys around, she does sometimes defluff them too. She can be an independent girl on occasion but does love a fuss, she especially likes a head and ear scratch. If she gets chilly she will happily climb into your lap for a snuggle to warm up. This pawsome companion is looking for her new home.

About Lola

What life with Lola looks like

Lola is a young adult dog waiting at Dogs Trust Canterbury in Chestfield.

A young 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 Trust Canterbury 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 Trust Canterbury 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 Dogs Trust Canterbury 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.
