About Lily

Meet Lily! This affectionate young Boxer mix is ready to find her forever home after enduring tough times in a high-kill shelter. She possesses a loving gaze that melts hearts and brings joy to those around her. Not only is Lily a loyal companion, but her cuddles have a way of easing the stresses of the day. With her beautiful brindle coat that resembles a little tiger, and adorable white paws that look like she's wearing socks, Lily is truly a sight to behold.

Lily is a blend of energetic and chill. She enjoys running around for some zoomies or simply hanging out and watching the world go by. She loves kids and gets along well with other dogs but is not suited for homes with cats. If you’re interested in giving Lily the loving home she deserves, please contact Teri at 630-897-7454.
