About Lily Nason Nj

Lily was surrendered when her previous owner became ill and could not care for her any longer. At nearly nine years old, she remains healthy, alert, and house-trained. Lily takes pride in being a good listener and is happiest when out on a long walk or joining you for a car ride. Her vaccinations are current, and her next round is scheduled for May. She has lived with other dogs, including her companion Lucy Nason (also adoptable), and currently gets along with two larger dogs in her foster home. Lily may bark when meeting new dogs on walks—more from curiosity than anything else—but shows no aggression. She is fully crate trained, often choosing to relax in her crate even with free roam of the home. Above all, Lily is an affectionate senior looking for a calm spot to settle in Boonton, NJ. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
