FOSTER UPDATE 2/27/2012
Lola is making good progress on her weight loss goals. She has lost 9 pounds and has taken a couple of inches off her waist. She is getting up and down the stairs more easily and is beginning to run around in the backyard. When she sees a squirrel, she tries to chase it. She also tries to engage her foster sister in play, but her foster sister doesn't seem interested. She has a very sweet-sounding bark; it sounds more like a small dog than a golden. She doesn't seem to be terribly storm-phobic. She noticed the thunder last time we had a storm, but didn't seem too upset by it. Her coat feels wonderful; it's hard to stop petting her because it feels so good, and she doesn't mind! Once she sheds some more pounds, she will be absolutely stunning! 

FOSTER UPDATE 1/31/2012
Lola is a very sweet and calm dog. Her coat is thick and very soft and silky. She is extremely overweight which makes it difficult for her to get up and down steps, but she is getting better and even running a little bit. She is on a special diet and is starting to slim down. She gets along great with her foster sister. As she feels better, I'm sure we will see her true personality emerge.

INTAKE REPORT 1/16/2012
Lola and Doc were orphaned when their owner died, and they were left to live their lives by themselves in a backyard all alone.  A family member faithfully came to feed them twice a day, and this was very bad for sweet Lola.  She is super heavy!  She is suffering terribly with this weight, and has difficulty moving quickly. Both are sweet, kind and gentle.  Lola has won over all of the staff at our clinic because she is such a happy and sweet girl.  She is just so easy and just wants someone to love her.  She has already begun her weight loss program and is going to be gorgeous when she slims down.  This duckling is on her way to being a beautiful swan.
