My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

They call me, Lily the Lovebug, Lily the leaner and when I get to know ya better, Lily the licker! I come from a difficult background having come in as a stray. I know… who would let me out if their site?

Anyway, I’m still leary but happy. I have been given all of my appropriate shots and have been micro chipped, spayed and I am ready to go once I’m completely healed.

A little about me. I’m very shy but also easily trusting. I’ll roll right over and give you my tummy to scratch but I may still keep my tail tucked between my legs (unless it’s wiggling )

I live well with other dogs and I’m not really a barker but have joined in a time or two with my foster brother.

I do well with dog savvy kids, we just need some time to click I haven’t met any cats yet but I’m sure I will like them.

I am truly a lap dog and a couch dog but most of all a blanket cuddler. I love to sleep with my family cuz I don’t want them out of my site and I get cold.

I will go out with you if you want but I’d rather be inside. I am pee pad trained. I just want to be where you are.

Remember, I’m 9 pounds, almost 3 year old Chihuahua mix. They call me Lily the Lovebug and I’m waiting for you to come and get me so I can live up to my name and love you like crazy. Fill out an application for me at https://alternativehumanesociety.com/statement-of-interest-dog/
