About Lily

Meet Lily, a gentle nine-year-old German Shepherd mix on a quest for a quiet forever home. Weighing in at about 45 lbs, she arrived at the shelter as a stray back in July 2026. Lily quickly captured the hearts of her volunteers with her calm and affectionate demeanor. Although she gets along well with other dogs, she prefers serene one-on-one moments over lively playdates. Thanks to a dedicated foster, she’s now adapting nicely to home life, showing off her sweet personality. In her foster home, Lily is friendly with everyone and is progressing well with crate training. While she’s a bit shy on leash, her foster family is helping her build confidence. This easygoing girl thrives in a peaceful environment, enjoying gentle walks, cozy naps, and companionship. A quieter household would be ideal for her, whether as a solo companion or with another calm, respectful dog. Lily is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and house trained. If you’re looking for a mellow buddy to share quiet days and gentle outings with, Lily might just be the perfect match. Click apply to start the adoption process.
