History: Lilian lived as a stray/outdoor dog in northern MB. She has gone from being extremely fearful and uncertain of people and places to being very trusting and snuggly. She is doing so well on leash, like an absolute professional walker. She has come so far in the month we have had her with us and is ready for a home where she can continue to build a relationship with her humans and maybe have some calm doggy buddies to live with. She has a goofy side where she will roll/rub her face on the ground/in the snow.

Foster Comments: Lilian is a bit slow to warm up but in 2 days she will be glued to your side and follow you everywhere. She is very well socialized and peacefully coexists with other dogs.
