MEET LILLI….”Lilli pad” to her close friends and relatives! This little 11 lb, 5-6 yr old, gray/white spitfire has had an awful life :(. How or why she originally landed in the shelter we do not know, but she was matted to the bone a year+, adopted by a 92 yr old woman who neglected her for a year and then given to another senior to care for her who couldn’t have two dogs in her living environment 🙁 Once we got her to the groomer and had all the knots and matts and who knows what else the groomer found, he said “if I could, I would take her home with me — she’s so cute!” He never says that about anyone! Lilli has a lot of pent up energy after living with two seniors. She loves to play — taking pictures of her was a feat! She loves to go in circles when she is excited and sometimes even when she does her business! She is a kissy face girl who is very busy and just wants to be a girly girl! She was trained to go on a pp pad, but we have worked with her and she goes outside — a couple of accidents here and there on the pp pad! She doesn’t really play with toys — she will chase after them but leave them wherever they land. Lilli would love to have a companion pup to play with as she is trying to play with our other foster dog and he’s not having it! A family with older kids would even be a possibility!! She walks pretty well on a leash and barks when you are getting ready to take her out….and when you are getting ready to feed her! Other than that, she is very quiet. Her previous owner says she would love her to have a yard to play in!! Lilli hasn’t been here long so that is about all we can tell you. We will update her profile as we learn more!
