My name is Lily!

Meet Lily, a four-year-old, spayed Jindo mix girl with a beautiful yellow coat and a solid 20kg frame. Lily is a sweet, timid girl who needs a gentle and patient companion to bring out her best self.

She’s not one for forced interactions or being picked up, as these situations can overwhelm her. While she has no aggression whatsoever, her go-to response when afraid is to avoid and retreat. A calm and understanding adopter who enjoys the process of building trust—perhaps with treats and positive reinforcement—would be the perfect match for her. Lily tends to freeze up if strangers try to touch her, though she tolerates it without protest.

She’s not naturally outgoing, but her subtle displays of affection, like a wagging tail in the morning to greet her primary caregiver, are incredibly rewarding. While she’s okay with being petted and even kissed, she doesn’t actively seek attention and may show slight discomfort. Because of her sensitivity, Lily would not do well in a home with young children, as their unpredictable movements and rough handling might stress her out.

When it comes to other dogs, Lily can be selective. She may engage in conflict if another dog provokes her or if they’re overly excitable or nervous. She’s best introduced to new canine friends carefully, as she prefers to avoid greetings with unfamiliar dogs during walks. Despite this, she has no issues sharing space with compatible, calm dogs. While she has no resource guarding issues with humans, she may growl if another dog approaches her food.

Outdoorsy adopters will be thrilled to know that Lily is a seasoned walker who loves hiking and exploring nature. She walks beautifully on the leash without pulling and has a balanced energy level—active and engaged outdoors but calm and relaxed at home after a good outing. Lily’s also a great travel companion. She’s a pro in the car, calmly riding in a kennel or hopping in and out of vehicles on her own with just a little guidance. She’s mostly an outdoor potty dog and is easy to manage in this regard.

With her gentle demeanor, hiking-ready attitude, and polite leash manners, Lily is ready to be a loyal companion to someone who will appreciate her subtle charm and respect her boundaries.
