Story
Lilo is a spunky, hilarious sweetheart who is so loving you’d never know the neglect and abuse she endured for years. She was rescued from horrible conditions and nearly didn’t make it. Fortunately, Lilo got a new lease on life and has certainly made the most of it! Here's what Lilo's foster has to say about her: "When I first got Lilo, she wouldn't come anywhere near me. She was scared and untrusting after all she'd been through. Now, she's a vibrant girl who makes me smile and laugh every single day. She's a total goofball and the queen of ridiculous facial expressions and dramatic sighs . She's also the BIGGEST snugglebug and will gladly curl up beside you whenever possible. I always have my phone nearby to take a photo or video because she's always up to something adorable and/or hysterical! Lilo also LOVES to play! If I need to get stuff done without interruption, I'll just give her a chew toy and she’ll keep herself occupied! She also loves to play with people! Wave a tug toy around and she’ll go into total puppy mode trying to chase it—zoomies and all! Lilo is one amazing girl and I am so excited for her to find the home of her dreams!" Lilo has learned what it means to be safe and is over-the-moon happy just to be around those who show her love. Whether she’s out on a walk or snuggling beside you—she just wants to be your sidekick! Lilo loves other dogs but should still be supervised with other pups for now, as she doesn’t always read dogs’ more dominant social cues as playful. It doesn’t take much to make Lilo happy—all she wants is love! If you think you can give her the life she deserves, please visit our website and fill out an application! https://www.pupandcatco.com/                                                                              Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.We do not have a shelter facility and our pets are housed in foster homes, vet clinics and local boarding facilities. Many of our adoptable pets attend adoption events each Saturday at Mall of Georgia Petsmart in Buford, Georgia from 11:30-3:00 pm Please check with us to find out if a particular pet will be available. Dogs going to adoption event are typically posted on our Facebook page the day prior. Details about our adoption procedures can be seen at www.pupandcatco.com. April 11, 2024, 8:28 pm

Theodore is a friendly and affectionate dog. He is having a rough time adapting to shelter life and just wanted to go hide in the woods during our walk😢 He would make an excellent companion for the right person who will help him to trust. He came to the shelter as a stray.
