About Lily in TN

Lily is an adorable 5-year-old female Dachshund in Spring Hill, TN. With her beautiful long, English Cream coat, she is a retired breeder dog who needs time and patience to adjust to her new environment. Currently, she weighs around 10.49 lbs and is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Lily is house-trained and crate-trained, but she is still working on leash training. A fenced yard is essential for her, as she thrives in a secure space to explore. She would do best in a home without small children, as loud noises can scare her. While she can live with male dogs, she is not fond of females and does not get along with cats. This sweet girl will take time to build trust, but once she does, she shows her affectionate nature. An experienced adopter familiar with retired breeding dogs would be ideal for helping Lily thrive. Make sure your home is a warm and calm environment, and you'll be rewarded with a loyal companion.
