Lilly is a beautiful 1‑year‑old black Shepherd with a small splash of white on her chest and a heart full of potential. She’s currently a bit insecure, but with structure, consistency, and someone who understands Shepherds, Lilly truly blossoms into an incredibly loyal and devoted companion.
Lilly is highly toy‑motivated (even more than food!) and is happiest chasing toys or learning new games. She’s smart, eager, and quick to pick up anything you’re willing to teach her—making training a fun and rewarding experience for both of you.
She would likely do well with another dog, but is not a good candidate for a home with another female Shepherd. Proper introductions and continued guidance will be key to her success.
Because she’s still young and impulsive, Lilly would do best with dog‑savvy kids and cats who can respect her boundaries. With clear correction and gentle guidance, she learns quickly and wants to do the right thing.
Lilly is looking for a patient, confident home that can offer leadership, play, and understanding. In return, she’ll grow into an amazing, loyal partner who’s always ready for her next game—and your heart.
