"Lake is high-energy and would be thrilled to have a family that will teach her new things to keep that sharp mind going strong," the shelter's website reads.

"While she cannot go home with smaller animals she would love to have a companion her own size to play with like she does here at the shelter."

Lake's adoption price has been reduced to $100 and she's eligible for short-term fostering and day trips. If you are interested in adopting her, click here.
