About Lilly - 3 Month Old Kelpie X Staffy
Meet Lilly, a beautiful girl with a bright spirit and a loving heart. Playful, curious, and wonderfully intelligent, Lilly is always eager to explore her world and learn new things. She loves investigating everything around her, enjoying her playtime, and then happily curling up for affection once she’s had her fun.
True to her Kelpie heritage, Lilly is a smart, engaged pup who thrives with guidance and stimulation. She will shine in a home that offers consistent training, daily mental challenges, and regular physical activity. A big backyard to run and play is right up her alley, and she especially enjoys a good game of tug-of-war with her toys.
Lilly is also a gentle and affectionate companion who loves being close to her people. She’s happiest when she’s included in family life, balancing her adventurous side with a strong love for cuddles and companionship.
Already showing great manners for her age, Lilly can use a doggy door, manage stairs and ramps, sit politely for treats, and sleeps through the night until 5:30 a.m. With a family committed to her continued training and development, Lilly will grow into a beautiful, loyal, and devoted dog. 🐾
Lilly’s ideal home:
* Kids over 8
* Active lifestyle with time for training, walks, and play
* Experience with or understanding of working breeds (or willingness to learn)
* Access to puppy school and ongoing training opportunities.
* Allowed indoors as she’s currently an inside pup and loves it
* Family who’s home often whilst a young pup
* Doggy door to continue toilet training
* Yard to run and exercise in
* Needs a safe and secure yard high fences, no gaps
