Adoption information
About Lily
From being abandoned and then surviving parvo, Lily is the sweetest little girl you could ever meet. She is gentle, affectionate, and so eager to feel safe.
She’s wonderful with cats, great with other dogs, and absolutely adores people.
Lily has discovered her love of toys; she collects them in her bed and enjoys them all (tough stuffies only!).
She's only a little girl at 7.5kg so we would expect her to be around 11-12kg when fully grown (would be out best guess based on her size and weight at this age).
We feel she's crossed with something much smaller, possibly whippet from her physique.
From the timid little girl who arrived, she had also found a love for wrestling with her foster sister, a much larger dog, but she takes on the challenge with ease and a glint of mischief in her eyes.
Lily needs someone gentle, someone who will show her that the world isn’t as scary as it once was and reassure her when she goes on outings. Once out and about she is more confident but can be a little unsure at the start.
She sleeps in her crate at night and has only had a couple of accidents on her pee pads since being in care.
Whoever opens their heart to this little girl won’t just be adopting a dog… they’ll be giving a survivor the happy ending she’s fought so hard for. And in return, Lily will love you unconditionally.
Note from her foster family “this little girl is so special and is going to be very hard to say goodbye to”
Medical notes
Lily will be due her desex early in May. Her desex cost will be covered by the rescue as part of her adoption fee.
