About Lola (Australian cattle dog/blue heeler) in Albuquerque

Lola is waiting for you at Albuquerque Animal Services - Eastside in Albuquerque, NM 87112. Meet Lola!At just one year old, this Cattle Dog mix is bursting with personality, love, and potential. When Lola first arrived, she was so fearful she had to be carried — the world felt like a very big, scary place. But with patience, kindness, and lots of treats, she has blossomed into an affectionate, playful girl who’s ready to find her forever home. Lola is incredibly treat-motivated and eager to please, which makes her a wonderful candidate for continued training. She already knows “sit” and is currently learning how to navigate the agility equipment in our play yards — and she’s having a blast doing it! True to her Cattle Dog roots, she’s energetic, intelligent, and thrives when she has both mental and physical enrichment.Once she trusts you (it doesn't take too long), Lola’s sweet personality really shines. She loves giving kisses, leans in close for affection, and absolutely melts for butt scratches. Lola would do best with a home that understands her working-dog energy and is excited to continue her training journey. With structure, patience, and plenty of treats, she will reward you with loyalty, laughter, and lots of love. If you’re looking for a smart, energetic best friend who will adore you endlessly, Lola might just be your girl.
