About Lilly

Meet Lilly, your ultimate adventure buddy and snuggle companion. This 7-year-old spayed female Labrador Retriever mix weighs a healthy 45 lbs and currently resides in Houston, Texas, but can easily be transported out of state to her perfect forever home. Lilly's journey began with a close call; she was on the euthanasia list at a busy shelter due to space issues. Fortunately, her wonderful foster mom stepped in just in time, and Lilly has been overflowing with gratitude ever since, communicating her joy through wagging tails and affectionate kisses. Don't let her age fool you—Lilly has boundless energy and loves playtime. Her favorite activities include tug-of-war, playing fetch, and long, scent-filled walks. She perfectly balances her independent nature with a strong desire to be near her humans, earning her the affectionate title of "velcro dog." In her foster home, Lilly coexists beautifully with another dog and eagerly greets new canine friends, always focused on chasing squirrels. While she hasn’t been formally tested with kids, her gentle demeanor suggests she will thrive with older, respectful children. Cats, on the other hand, require a bit of redirection with Lilly’s interest when it gets too intense. Lilly is crate-trained and house-trained, signaling her needs politely by tapping at the door. She prefers to eat alone but is totally fine with humans nearby during meal times. This loyal girl dreams of a moderately active household, filled with outdoor access and people to dote on her. Whether you’re looking for a furry adventure partner or a cozy couch potato, Lilly offers the best of both worlds, combining the maturity of a house-trained adult with the playfulness of a young pup.
