Lily is a sweet, loving shepherd mix who is 5 years old and weighs 65 pounds. She was rescued from Mexico as a puppy and is a gentle soul. Lily is timid at first but warms up quickly to anyone taking care of her. Her favorite thing to do is to stare into your eyes while you stroke her face. She also has a goofy side to her personality, and when she's excited, often about food or attention, her whole body wiggles when she shakes her tail. Lily loves being able to sit in the sun or by an open door to get a fresh breeze and hear nature sounds. Lily loves walks, but she is also a bit of a homebody and gets tired on long hikes or runs. She doesn't like fireworks and will try to hide in a closet or pantry if she hears them. Lily has been living with two other dogs for most of her life and has gotten along with them at dog sitters' houses. She has not been around children or cats but should do fine with older children.
Ideal Home
Lily enjoys sunbathing and fresh breezes, so a home with access to these would be wonderful. She's a homebody and gets tired on long hikes, so she'd prefer shorter walks over strenuous activities.
Ongoing Health
Lily is spayed, healthy, and up to date on vaccines. She had knee surgery for a torn ACL ligament a couple of years ago and recovered well. She experienced some joint pain for a while, which seemed to resolve after she lost some weight.
Training & Support
Lily is house-trained and knows some basic commands. She is very food-motivated, which can be a great asset for continued training. She does not like fireworks and will seek a hiding spot if she hears them.
