Lilah's Story

YOU MUST HAVE AN APPROVED APPLICATION IN ORDER TO MEET OUR PETS.<br/><br/>Lilah is a 10 year old Lab whose original owner passed away, and the remaining family is facing significant medical hardship and an emergency move out of state, leaving Lilah without a home.<br/><br/>A volunteer at a vet clinic is fostering Lilah until a permanent home can be found. Lilah has been settling in and adjusting well to her new routine.<br/><br/>She’s a sweet, gentle girl who does best with patience, structure, and calm guidance as she continues to build confidence. <br/><br/>We’ve already seen positive changes as she gets more comfortable. <br/><br/>Once she feels safe, her playful side starts to shine, and it’s been really nice to watch her personality come through.<br/><br/>Lilah has done well with cats and larger dogs and has previously lived with children. She would do best with older children who understand how to respect a dog’s space and boundaries. <br/><br/>Lilah is nervous around small dogs who are dominant or pushy; proper and calm introductions are best for her with any new dog.<br/><br/>She is timid and cautious with new people and prefers to approach on her own terms. With patience and consistency, she begins to warm up.<br/><br/>Once she feels safe, she is very sweet and affectionate. She enjoys gentle affection and being near her person and does best in a calm, predictable environment.<br/><br/>She’s still learning appropriate play boundaries with humans and benefits from consistency around routines, meals, and toys, things we are actively working on as she settles in.<br/><br/>She appears to be house trained and has not had any accidents. She does exhibit submissive/nervous urination when she is very anxious or startled but fine otherwise.<br/><br/>Delilah is thin and has inflamed skin, likely due to fleas and prolonged stress due to the prior family situation, but that is improving already. She is spayed and has a known veterinary history with the vet clinic. Recent bloodwork and exam were normal.<br/><br/>We have observed some resource guarding related to her crate, food, and toys. She gives clear warning signals (freezing, growling) rather than escalating, a very good thing! She will need an experienced adopter who understands management and positive-reinforcement approaches to resource guarding.<br/><br/>Adoption donation $150.<br/><br/>
Please note that we do not ship animals. We also require a home visit before finalizing any adoptions so preference is given to applicants within a 90 mile range. You will be required to come to High Point, NC to meet/pick up your new pet.<br/><br/>
