Lola | Pitbull | Bakersfield, California

Meet Lola, a friendly five-month-old Pitbull who is joining us for our two-week board and train program. Lola struggles with selective hearing; while she may listen at home, it becomes challenging to get her attention when she’s distracted. Additionally, her excitement sometimes leads to playful nipping. Stay tuned for updates on her incredible transformation!
