Meet adoptable deaf one year old Lola who is looking for a loving forever home with someone who will cherish her, become her new best friend, teach her new sign cues and always keep her safe.

From Lola is a goofy, active girl looking for a fun-loving family to call her own! Lola gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and enjoys meeting new people of all ages. She would love a home willing to give her lots of fun adventures, and with plenty of fun squeaky toys too! Lola is a treat-motivated girl, which also makes learning quick and fun, and is also a smart dog who loves enrichment games. She would make a great adventure buddy, and is eager to be your new best friend.

Lola was born deaf and will need a family who is committed to using positive reinforcement training to help her communicate with her new family using hand signals or touch cues. She is looking for an indoor home where she can be inside with her family, and will need someone committed to keeping her on-leash in areas that are not enclosed. Have questions about deaf dogs?
