About Lily

Meet Lily, a lively 14-year-old Chihuahua currently staying in Scottsburg, IN. Rescued from the streets, this charming girl has a playful spirit despite her past.

While she has a limp in her back leg, it doesn’t hinder her zest for life. She navigates stairs easily and gets along well with cats and dogs, but she’s not the best fit for homes with children. Lily is looking for a loving forever home where she can relax and enjoy her golden years.
