Lili & Lulu Bio Please ensure you understand and can meet the needs of this dog before applying. Energy level: high Potty training: trained Fenced yard: not required Shared walls: suitable People: all Dogs: small dogs ok Other: bonded pair Overview Looking for double the love? Meet Lili and Lulu, a bonded duo who will fill your home with kisses, cuddles, and endless entertainment. Lili and Lulu are 3-4 year old dachshund mixes with gorgeous short red coats. Lili weighs 25.6 lbs and Lulu weighs 23.2 lbs (both are working on reaching healthier weights). These two are inseparable and must be adopted as a pair. Lili is the confident leader of the pack—a huge lovebug who's always ready with kisses and attention. She's curious, easy-going, and loves to sniff everything on walks. Lulu is the smart, observant one who's initially more hesitant but incredibly sweet once she feels comfortable. She's energetic, playful, loves her toys, and is a devoted cuddler. Together, they play throughout the day, groom each other, and create the most beautiful bond you'll ever see. Environment These high-energy girls need daily walks and play sessions to stay happy and healthy. They're both fully potty trained and don't require a fenced yard, though outdoor time for exercise is important. Both girls love their crate—it's their happy place! They do beautifully when left in a pen with their crate and bed inside. They're not overly noisy, making them suitable for homes with shared walls. Lili and Lulu both love walks but will need patient adopters committed to working on their leash manners. They do well in the car, whether traveling in their crate or in booster seats. Lulu particularly gets excited about car rides. Pets & People Lili is very sweet and gentle with people. She loves attention and is usually the first one to approach for pets and kisses. She had family visitors over and was friendly and happy the whole time. Lulu likes attention and cuddles once she's warmed up to someone, but she's initially more hesitant with new people. They would do best with older, considerate children. With strangers, Lili sometimes does a "preventive bark" during walks—one or two barks as if to say "I'm here, stay back." Once she sees that her people know and trust the person, she becomes friendly and comes closer for greetings. Lulu can be hesitant with strangers and may take steps back, but once she sees her people trust someone, she'll approach and interact, eventually accepting pets. The girls met another dachshund on a walk and did fine. During walks, Lili has strong reactions toward other animals—she pulls the leash and is eager to get closer, requiring redirection. She's done the "preventive bark" at stranger dogs from a distance. Lulu doesn't pay much attention to other dogs. Both girls have prey drive and will need experienced owners who can work on their leash reactivity. Lili is a picky eater. When she first arrived, she only ate human food like rice and plain chicken. After treatment for parasites, her appetite returned, and she now eats kibble. She's been slowly losing weight from her arrival weight of 27 lbs. Lulu, on the other hand, loves food and treats! She's very food motivated. Lili lets people wipe her paws, give her baths, and brush her teeth without much fussing. Important to note: Lili has a prey drive and could become overprotective over her humans (possible resource guarding). Lulu barks at random sudden noises out of fear (just a couple of barks), which has occasionally woken her foster family in the middle of the night. Health & Special Needs Both girls will benefit from continued training, particularly around leash manners and reactivity. An experienced adopter who can provide structure, patience, and positive reinforcement will help these sisters thrive. Location Lili and Lulu are available for adoption from Coral Springs, FL.
