Meet Lilly: Your Future Shadow, Cuddle Bug, and Professional Toy Demolisher ?Looking for a loyal companion who wants nothing more than to be by your side? Meet Lilly! This 3.5-year-old German Shepherd is an absolutely amazing dog with a heart of gold. She is the perfect mix of an active outdoor buddy and a calm, couch-potato snuggle bug.?Lilly is what we affectionately call a "velcro dog." She loves her humans fiercely, wants to be involved in whatever you are doing, and will happily be your sweet little shadow around the house.?Here is everything you need to know about our wonderful girl:?The Best Things About Lilly:?A Total People-Lover: Lilly loves every single person she meets and is absolutely fantastic with kids!?Smart & Eager to Please: She knows "sit," "lay down," "shake a paw," and understands "outside," "treat," and "walk."?Quiet & Calm: You won't have to worry about nuisance barking. Lilly is very quiet; she only barks on occasion and never for extended periods.?Perfect House Manners: She isn't crate trained, but she doesn't need to be! She is perfectly well-behaved when left alone or while sleeping.?The Perfect Balance: She loves going for walks or runs, but the moment you get home, she is ready to curl up and snuggle with you on the couch.? Her Funny Quirks:?The Toy Assassin: Stuffed toys and squeakers, beware! Destroying plush toys is her absolute favorite pastime. She also loves her balls and is actively working on her fetch skills.?The Meat Thief: Lilly is incredibly well-behaved around human food... unless it's meat. Meat is the only human food she will eat, and she has zero guilt about stealing an unattended steak if given the opportunity!?Selective Hearing: When it's just the two of you, her off-leash recall is great. But if there are other dogs or people around to distract her? Her listening skills completely go out the window!? Lilly's Ideal Home & Training Needs:?While Lilly is a perfect angel with humans, she does have some specific needs to ensure she thrives:?No Cats: Lilly has a very strong prey drive, so she must go to a feline-free home.? Lilly can be reactive to other dogs. Especially on leash. She requires very slow, structured introductions. Because of this, homes with small dogs are not recommended.?Experienced Owner Needed: We are looking for an adopter who has experience with dog reactivity and is committed to working with her on her leash skills and distraction recall.?Lilly is an incredibly sweet, calm, and loving soul who just wants a family to call her own. If you have the experience to help her work through her dog reactivity, she will reward you by being the most devoted, snuggly best friend you could ever ask for.? Favorite This Pet Search More Pets
