Meet Lilou, a sweet, friendly, and happy 8-year-old girl searching for her forever home in Florida. Weighing around 40 lbs, Lilou has wonderful house manners, is house-trained, and loves being close to her people. Her favorite activities include relaxing on cozy beds near her humans or doggie friends, enjoying short sunbathing sessions, and taking leisurely strolls through the neighborhood to sniff all the wonderful scents. She happily shows her joy with plenty of tail wags and occasionally plays with toys. She spends many of her daytime hours napping nearby. Lilou also does great riding in the car. She has done well around cats and enjoys hanging out with her furry friends.
Ideal Home
Lilou would do well in a first-floor, one-level carpeted home with a small grassy yard or courtyard and neighborhood sidewalks for strolls. She needs a home without young children, as she can accidentally bump or fall into people, dogs, or objects. She will do best with other medium-energy or calm dogs, as she may try to join in exuberant play and shouldn't run unassisted. An all-adult home or one with respectful teens who understand her mobility needs would be ideal. She will thrive in a home where someone is around much of the time to enjoy her loving companionship, though she does just fine staying home with other dogs while you run errands or work a half day.
Ongoing Health
Lilou walks with a wobbly gait due to difficulty with her balance and coordination. She wears a harness which allows her human to assist her when needed, especially on neighborhood walks, potty outings, and sometimes getting from one room to another. Indoors, she does best on carpets or rubber mats (which will come with her adoption and can be placed over tile or other slippery floors). She prefers to eat lying down.
Training & Support
Lilou is house-trained and has wonderful house manners. She navigates some on her own in a backyard, especially when calm and moving slow and steady.
