Lilli is a gentle soul with a soft heart and a thoughtful approach to the world. When meeting new people, she can be a bit nervous and may need a few meet-and-greets to feel safe and confident. Give her that time, and you’ll watch something lovely unfold. Once Lilli knows she can trust you, she blossoms into a playful, affectionate companion. She loves to zoom around and play, then happily settle in for snuggles. And fair warning, when she decides you’re her person, she shows it with an enthusiastic supply of sweet kisses.
Lilli would do best with a patient, understanding family who will let her set the pace and celebrate each small win. In return, she offers deep loyalty, joyful playtime, and a whole lot of love wrapped in a gentle package.

Come into the Centre and if you see a pet you like, you are able to do a "Meet and Greet" with that pet. Spend some time in alone with the pet or take a dog out for a short walk. If you are still interested in adopting the pet you can meet with one of our Adoption Counsellors who will have you fill out and application and will ask you some questions about the environment in which you live. If you seem like a wonderful match and your envirnoment meets the needs of the pet then your application should be approved!
