In the shelter’s words

Lilly is a darling little sweetheart with a growing confidence and playful spirit! She’s not quite sold on being outdoors yet, but she has conquered potty pad training — even if she’s still working on perfecting her aim on the pad (she’s trying, promise). As of this weekend, Lilly has blossomed into playtime and now loves toys and chasing balls. She already knows commands like “come” and “be patient,” and she responds best to praise and encouragement over treats — she lives for kind words and love. Lilly is also improving beautifully with kennel training, only crying once last night before settling down for the night. She’s finished her worm meds and is feeling much more comfortable and healthy now. Lilly is a sweet, sensitive pup who will shine in a patient, loving home ready to celebrate her progress. Lilly is from a local reservation. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
