Lolo and her sister Grace were born on September 1st to their momma, Norah, in an overcrowded county shelter in South Texas. At just two days old, the little family came into the care of Good Catch Dog Rescue to begin their journey toward finding forever homes.
Lolo has consistently been the bigger sister to Grace, weighing in at just over 15 pounds at nine weeks old. Momma Norah weighs 65 pounds, and her DNA results came back as Great Pyrenees/Shepherd. With those genetics and her current size, we expect Lolo to be over 70 pounds when fully grown.
This pup has been exposed to lots of people and has recently started meeting all the dogs in her foster home, giving her opportunities to learn from the grown-ups. She pays no attention to the cats, something she seems to have inherited from her momma Norah, and she's currently dividing her days pretty evenly between playing and napping. It's a tough life, but somebody has to live it.
At just 10 weeks old, Lolo is still developing her personality, but she's already proving to be a confident, happy-go-lucky little love bug who gives kisses freely. She has wonderful recall, and her interest in toys and chews is endless!
Lolo is up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, started preventatives at six weeks, and is following our puppy deworming schedule. She's growing beautifully and is ready to take the next step in her rescue journey.
We're looking for a home with older children and a securely fenced yard where Lolo will have room to explore, play, and safely experience the world around her. Because she's still so young, we'd prefer an adopter who is home more often than not and understands how important these early months are. Socialization, positive experiences, consistent routines, and plenty of patience will go a long way toward helping Lolo grow into a confident, well-adjusted adult dog.
As much as we love watching these puppies grow, we know the most important part of their story is still ahead of them. Lolo has had a wonderful start with her momma and sister, but now it's time for someone to take everything she's learning and build on it. We're hoping to find a family who understands that raising a puppy is equal parts work, patience, laughter, and love, and who will enjoy watching this beautiful girl grow into the wonderful dog she's meant to become.
If you're ready for puppyhood in all its messy, exhausting, hilarious, and rewarding glory, Lolo might be just the girl you've been waiting for.
