About Lilly

Meet Tilly, the sweet Chiweenie with a heart as big as her tiny frame. Born on January 8, 2023, Tilly is looking for a patient and loving home where she can feel safe. This little lady may be shy, but once she trusts you, she will shower you with love and affection. Tilly is very sensitive to her surroundings. New people, sudden movements, and unfamiliar places can leave her feeling overwhelmed. Instead of reacting aggressively, her instinct is to seek safety in hiding. Her future family should know she needs time—sometimes days or weeks—to build confidence. A calm and predictable home would suit her best, ideally with adults or older children who understand that frightened dogs require a gentle approach. A securely fenced yard is crucial, as Tilly might bolt if startled. She’s already spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations, and she’s house trained. Tilly doesn’t get along with cats but does enjoy the company of other dogs. If you can provide Tilly the safe space she needs, you're bound to witness something beautiful—the transformation of a scared little dog into a loving companion. Tilly’s waiting for her safe person. Maybe that’s you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
