About Lilly

Meet Lilly. Lilly is a one-year-old Shepherd mix who came to safety just minutes before her time at the San Antonio shelter would have been up. She landed in rescue after leaving an overcrowded home, underweight and unsure, but quickly showed herself to be incredibly resilient and sweet. In a month, Lilly has gained weight, learned leash manners, and started mastering commands like "sit" and "no ma'am." She is devoted, gentle, and always ready to snuggle, favoring laps over dog beds whenever she can. Her joyful, goofy attitude shines, whether she’s prancing around off-leash or curled up with her foster’s Chihuahuas. Lilly thrives in calm environments and bonds tightly to her people. She’ll need a little patience, some space to run, and a lot of love—she will return every bit of it. Lilly’s a fighter and a lover who’s more than ready for her second chance. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
