My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

To adopt please fill out an adoption application.

Lilly is a 2yo female retriever mix who was rescued just in time from the Memphis Kill Shelter. Skittish, scared, shy, nervous, fearful. Lilly has been through a lot. Apparently her original home was not a good place for her because she has major trust issues, especially with men. Then in October she was abandoned on the streets of Memphis where she was rescued by a woman who took her to Memphis Kill Shelter after a couple of weeks because she had to travel for work. Lilly was scheduled to be euthanized right away due to her fear issues and, upon learning Lilly’s urgent plight, the woman’s FRIEND rushed right down to save Lilly from the shelter and decided to foster Lilly until she finds her Forever Home.

It’s evident that Lilly was well-socialized as a young dog because she knows how to walk on a leash, ride in the car, take treats and she was already crate trained and housebroken. We believe that Lilly was mistreated somewhere along the way and traumatized. She’s been in her new foster home about a month and has become much more calm and trusting in that now-familiar environment. Lilly loves and trusts her foster mom. She’s gentle and friendly with the older neighborhood children. Fine with other dogs. Not recommended for cats because she likes to chase them. Very active outside, calm and well-mannered in the house. Housebroken and crate-trained. Healthy and fully vetted, current on shots, spayed, weighs about 55 pounds. Lilly’s ideal adopter will be someone who’s had experience with traumatized, fearful dogs and has the time, patience and desire to help Lilly become the best dog she can be.

All our Good Dogs are in southern foster homes.

More about this rescue

Good Dog Rescue is an all-breed rescue group headquartered in the South. Our group is comprised of volunteers all over the Southeast who love dogs and want to help those that end up homeless through no fault of their own. Loyal and loving dogs turn up every day in Southern shelters, as owners turn them in or they’re found roaming the streets after being dumped. To the best of our abilities, we evaluate all of our Good Dogs’ temperament and suitability for living with other dogs, cats, and children. A dog’s health is checked, and we make sure they are up-to-date on all shots and are spayed or neutered. Then, we place them in loving foster homes until they find their very own family. Our goal is to meet the needs of each dog as an individual and to assure proper placement in a loving forever home.
