Story
Hi there. As a long-time dog foster mom, I want to tell you about a VERY SPECIAL GIRL, Lily Maureen. Three-year-old Lily came to our rescue, scared and desperate for someone to care for her. As she started to learn what it was like to be cared for and loved by humans, she discovered that once she gets to know and trusts you, you are her everything. Her idol. Her whole world. And she will love you fiercely like you've never been loved before. This girl is a once-in-a-lifetime companion who will fill any hole in your heart. With proper introductions, she slowly warmed up to my husband and our three kids. In two weeks, she went from barking at and avoiding my husband, to affectionately shoving herself in his lap for snuggles and belly rubs. She loves all our kids, even the one child who doesn't particularly like animals. And Lily Maureen LOVES romping with and racing our other dogs around the backyard. Lily is 100% housetrained, and although very playful and puppy-like, she isn't a chewer, and she is great when left alone. She is not crate trained but waits patiently and quietly when gated off for rest or bedtime. She walks well on a leash if not distracted by neighborhood dogs, and sniffing is her favorite pastime (right after snuggling). She is very treat-motivated and learns extremely quickly. We have worked with a trainer and practiced at home, and Lily has made amazing progress. Her trainer is impressed and says, "I am so excited to see how this dog will blossom!" She needs a home with someone committed to her continued training and socialization, and at least initially, needs a home with a female caregiver, as she takes longer to warm up to men. If you are willing to put in some extra time upfront with this beautiful girl, she will repay you tenfold. Will you be her hero?
