About Dilly

Meet Dilly! Dilly is a delightful 4-month-old Chihuahua and Dachshund mix looking for a loving family to call her own. She was surrendered with her brother when their owner could no longer care for them, and now she's ready for a fresh start. Initially timid around new people, Dilly’s sweet personality truly shines once she finds her comfort zone. She interacts well with other dogs and cats and would thrive in a home with gentle, dog-savvy children who understand how to interact with a little puppy. This active pup needs a family that's ready for the joys and responsibilities of raising a young dog. Dilly is still mastering her house and crate training and has limited leash experience, so her new family will need to provide consistent potty breaks, routine, and positive reinforcement as she learns. Age-appropriate exercise, playtime, and socialization are must-haves. With love and patience, Dilly will blossom into a wonderful companion. Could your family be her furever home? Dilly is spayed, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, receiving heartworm and flea prevention, and microchipped. Adoption Fee: $375. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
