Meet Lilly, the sweetest of the bunch who’s won the hearts of everyone!…even the grumpiest of the old man dogs.
Lilly is a young adult dog with a longing in her eyes for companionship – human or doggie, she is not fussy. Everywhere she goes, people comment on her beautiful, tiger-like coat.
She gets along well with her two foster siblings that are a bit bigger than her, and has even persuaded an old grumpy yorkie that she is worthy of his attention. In return, she plays gently with him and is aware of her clear size difference. She also lives with two cat foster siblings and shows little interest in them!
Lilly is not a jumper so to say - but she will gently raise herself up and put her paws against your hips to say hi. She enjoys her “snoofing time” be it on walks or in a yard and has a moderate energy level – enough to keep up on longer walks and hikes, but also enjoys snuggles on the couch.
She is well behaved in the home - no accidents!! and quietly eats her dinner and will sleep overnight in her crate… she just asks that she has a seat on the sofa.
She is sweet tempered and usually has a toy in her mouth for emotional support. Check out this cute video: https://youtube.com/shorts/ImHtepJ3tSw?feature=shared
Lilly’s only hiccup is being crated/left alone when her humans aren’t home, and we really can’t blame her after being bounced around for the first few years of her life. She’s just nervous you won’t come back like the others. Because of this, Lilly needs a home with a family that is home most of the time. She would make a great companion for you when you go to the coffee shop, soccer fields, breweries, your holiday meals at your family’s house. She is working on handling a few hours here or there when you have to grocery shop or run errands that she can’t come with you for (but she will need more practice and a family committed to helping her learn that life is ok and you aren’t going to leave her… she is currently prescribed medication to help her cope and manage).

More about this rescue
PAWS is comprised of a small group of volunteers from New England and Tennessee trying to reduce the euthanization rate (previously 90%) at the Tipton County Animal Control shelter in Brighton, Tennessee. This shelter is forced to euthanize thousands of animals each year due to irresponsible pet owners that do not spay/ neuter their dogs in the area. Millions of dogs in America are euthanized each year due to lack of space and lack of funding to try and find them better homes.
Our mission is to save as many animals as possible, removing them from the shelter, having their veterinary needs met prior to traveling and then finding them loving homes throughout New England. We do this only with the assistance of many people volunteering their time by going to the shelter, transporting the dogs to the vet, fostering dogs who need special care, and arranging for their new and happy homes in this area. Most importantly, we cannot do any of this without those people willing to open their homes and hearts to these lovely creatures.
