Lilly
Lilly was tied to a post and abandoned outside a deli in New York. Nobody came looking for her. A by-passer contacted Animal Services to help the little dog get home or somewhere safe. Time passed and the only people looking for her were shelter staff searching for a rescue. Every one was full, so we stepped up and took her in. She was older than we thought, and came with a few medical issue such as a masses on her tongue which we had removed along with some much needed dental work. During her recovery, she kept a low profile and blended into the existing pack in the foster home. Foster mom spent many hours caring for her fevering body, cooling her hot swollen hocks, and fighting the urge to fall in love with this sweet fragile girl. What foster mom (Dawn….yes that’s right, Dawn) didn’t know, is that Lilly subtly won foster Dad’s heart and already secured her place in the family forever. Much to Dawn’s relief, Lilly is staying. Congratulations Lilly, you found your way home, and Dawn….no more fighting it, ya loved her from the moment she walked through your door and into your heart! Congratulations!
