Lily's Story

Lily is a sweet 2-year-old? female poodle mix (we’re guessing maybe a little dachshund, too!) who is just 12 pounds of love on short legs. Pulled from a CT pound after being found as a stray, she’s now ready to find the right forever home.<br/>She is 𝙚𝙭𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙡𝙮 , a true lap dog, and happiest when she’s right next to you—or better yet, in your arms. Baths, brushing, grooming? Total spa days in her book. She’s gentle with handling and thrives on human connection.<br/>Her desire to be with her person 24/7 may not be for everyone, but for the right person it’s a dream come true. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞, 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐝𝐲, 𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐤𝐢𝐜𝐤.<br/>She does have some separation anxiety and experienced severe kennel stress while in the pound, so traditional boarding is not for her. When her people travel, she’ll do best going with them or with an in-home pet sitter or staying with someone she knows and trusts. She’s also still learning the basics—house training and simple obedience like sit, stay, and wait—and she’s not a fan of the crate.<br/>If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will love you with her whole heart and be your constant presence, this tiny girl might be exactly who you’ve been waiting for. She will be arriving to Nantucket this weekend.
