About Lilly

Lilly is a sweet little 10-pound, 5-year-old long-haired Chihuahua available for adoption in New Jersey and nearby areas. Rescued when her owner went into hospice, she’s had a complete vet check-up, including vaccinations, spaying, and dental care. Spending most of her life indoors, Lilly is shy around new people but has blossomed into a loving, cuddly companion for her foster mom after a few weeks of patience. She needs an adult-only home to thrive, preferably with another medium-aged dog since she’s not accustomed to children. Lilly enjoys her outdoor adventures, where she can run in the yard, and is currently working on her leash training. She is wee-wee pad trained, and thankfully, she doesn’t need a crate. If you’re looking for a gentle companion who needs that special touch to feel at home, Lilly could be the perfect fit. Click apply to start the adoption process.
