Lilly is a sweet, soulful retired momma dog who has made incredible progress in her foster home. When she first arrived, she was unsure, but with love and patience, she’s blossomed into a loyal follower who loves being close to her people. One of her cutest quirks? She’ll gently boop the back of your leg with her nose when she wants attention—how adorable is that?
What Lilly Loves:
- Toys- Now that Lilly’s discovered toys, she’s all in! She loves to play and has a blast with her foster sister.
- Dogs: Lilly would thrive in a home with another dog to play and bond with.
- Kids: She’s wonderful with small children and adjusts her play to be gentle.
- Cuddles: After a good play session, Lilly is all about snuggling up for a long, cozy nap.
What Lilly’s Working On:
- Leash Walking: Lilly sometimes freezes on walks, but with treats and encouragement, she’s building her confidence.
- Skin Care: She’s got a few spots we’re treating with hypoallergenic baths, and her coat is improving beautifully. (She had just finished nursing her pups while her living through total neglect)
- Learning what it is to be part of a family. Lilly is finally having the puppyhood she was denied.
Lilly’s Personality:
Lilly needs about 10 minutes to sniff and settle in a new environment, but once she does, her playful and loving personality shines. She’s very food-motivated, making her eager to learn (though tricks are taking a little time). She hasn’t met any cats yet but has done well with everyone she’s met so far.
If you’re looking for a playful, snuggly, and endlessly sweet companion, Lilly might just be your perfect match. She’d love a home with other dogs and people who can give her the love and patience she needs to keep building her confidence.
