Dog Who Slept On Concrete Floor For 8 Years Has All The Beds She Wants Now
Lola’s existence before she was rescued might be summed up in one word: unhappy.
The pit dog had been tied inside a dark, dirty garage for eight years, spending her days resting on a concrete floor. She received little attention, no veterinary care, and was never released off her leash.
Lola was ultimately seen by a lady, who contacted AMA Animal Rescue, a New York-based animal protection group. When a team of rescuers came, they were able to persuade Lola’s owner to relinquish her.

No one could blame Lola for being nasty or violent toward others after what she had gone through. Lola, on the other hand, was the polar opposite: she was nice and lovely, and when the rescue team spotted her, she couldn’t stop wagging her tail.
Michele Walsh, an AMA volunteer, told The Dodo, “We dubbed her ‘wiggly butt.” “She was waving her adorable little tail, incredibly affectionate, giving kisses, and overjoyed to see her saviors.” They went out with her when she let them remove her from the chain.”

The team’s first priority was to bring Lola to Animal Kind Veterinary Hospital, where she had surgery to remove a few tumors. Lola was then placed in foster care for a few months before being adopted by Charlène von Saher, a Manhattan resident.
Lola has been with von Saher for seven weeks, but it only took her a few days to feel at ease in her new surroundings.

Von Saher told The Dodo, “She found out where her tiny beds were, and what was soft and comfy for her.”

Lola will also reorganize things to make herself more comfortable, according to von Saher.
“She actually stole one of my throw pillows and placed it in her dog bed,” von Saher added. “When I got home, she had her head on it, and she had fashioned herself a mini bed in her bed with my pillow.” I believe she appreciated having numerous pillows below her like in ‘The Princess and the Pea.'”

Lola has even been seen sleeping on two dog beds, according to von Saher…
