This 30-pound bundle of energy will “rap” you around her little paw. Lizzo is a 2- to 3-year-old cattle dog mix available for adoption from Heartland Small Animal Rescue. Lizzo has been crate trained and is learning proper potty habits. She is dog friendly and loves to play with friends that vary in age from puppy to adult. Because of poor care and a lack of flea prevention, Lizzo arrived at Heartland missing hair and with inflamed skin. With love and proper care, she has recovered nicely but may be left with some scars on her back. Lizzo is up to date on shots and spayed. She will need a little time to adjust to a new family but if you are looking for a companion that will get you exercising as you play with her, then Lizzo is a perfect choice.
