Story
Sweet and Loving Fern
Born on 9/9/26, Fern is an adorable brown and white puppy (an American Pit Bull Terrier/Border Collie/German Shepherd Dog/Supermutt mix, according to DNA testing on sibling) with brown spots on her forehead and a gentle disposition. Fern and her four siblings of the Charlotte’s Web litter came to us from a local shelter. Orphans and only 14 days old, they required intensive attention. Our amazing team of bottle feeders jumped in and provided them with the loving round-the-clock care they needed. And are they thriving!
Sweet and loving like her book namesake, Fern can be a little shy at first. Fern needs a little reassurance when presented with new experiences; she likes to look before she leaps into things. Like her siblings, she enjoys being in the backyard, but she needs more encouragement to leave her comfort zone (when you are this little, a leaf can be intimidating!). Fern gets cold quickly and wants to go inside where she can snuggle up with a warm, fuzzy blanket (same girl, same). A playful puppy, Fern loves her squeaky toys and rope tugs. She plays well with other dogs once she feels confident around them, and she lives in a home with multiple kids age 8 and up who lavish her with affection. Fern loves a cuddle more than anything, and she adores belly rubs. She’s always happy to oblige when someone wants to send some attention her way!
As she grows, Fern will begin potty, crate, leash, and obedience training. In the meantime, Fern is spending her days romping, cuddling, and getting lots of playtime, love, socialization and new adventures with her foster family and growing into a healthy, active, affectionate pup ready for her new home.

Ready to adopt? Now what?
Please take 3-4 minutes and complete our application form at: www.lilaccitypupproject.org. Our adoption team will spring into action! You will have a phone call conversation with a dedicated adoption counselor, and the adoption team will contact your vet(s), if applicable. Once you have been matched with a dog, a meet and greet will be set up and take place at the foster family's home. After the meet and greet, there will be a home inspection and in-home trial prior to adoption finalization.
Lilac City Pup Project is entirely volunteer and foster run, with no kennel facility. Only approved adoption applicants will be able to meet our dogs outside of adoption events.

$300 for Adults 9 months or older

LCPP is always in need of fosters. There is an overwhelming number of dogs who need our help and the more fosters we have, the more dogs we can save. LCPP covers expenses, including food. Fosters provide love and a soft place to crash.
At Lilac City Pup Project we strive to better the lives of vulnerable dogs through rescue, foster, and adoption services; educate dog owners and empower them to build successful human/canine relationships; and support the local community by partnering with shelters facing overcrowding and limited resources.
LCPP is organized exclusively for public, charitable, and/or educational purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. LCPP is a Nonprofit organization formed in Washington State in April 2025, by passionate dog lovers. One hundred percent (100%) of every dollar goes to furthering our tax-exempt purpose.
