Australian Kelpie herding dog, Lola. A rescue dog and subject of children's book, Lola and the Herd.

Lola, an Australian Kelpie and rescue from Helen Woodward Animal Shelter in San Diego, California, has exceptional talents of prancing on sidewalks, herding her human siblings, and announcing the daily postal delivery. She embraces the art of napping and has an uncanny ability to hear the opening of the refrigerator door from anywhere in the house. She is sweet. She is well-behaved. She is fearless (until the vacuum comes out of the closet).
