Lana is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet of The Week

She loves playing ball.

Lana is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 9 year old, 68 pound, female, German Shepherd / Labrador Retriever mix.

She likes to stay near her human family members. But if you throw her ball, she runs to go get it and bring it back so you can throw it again.

When her walks or playtime are over, Lana will be happy just to hang out with you. The care providers in the kennels say that the two words that best describe Lana are “Loyalty” and “Love.”
