owing you from room to room with her signature gentle loyalty. Once you earn her trust, you’ll unlock her goofy side: expect zoomies when you get home from work and bouncing excitement when she wants to play. She even gives you the cutest “please play with me” eyes! After a couple days in her new foster home, she settled in really nicely and caught onto the routine quickly. She’s fully potty trained, sleeps through the night in her crate, and even free-roams responsibly when left alone. She is doing well with household manners, like knowing not to jump up, counter surf or steal food, and she is quickly learning the “wait” command. She knows “sit” as well. Lilo is polite with other dogs and has done well with both cats and kids in past homes. While she may bark a bit when meeting new people or dogs from afar, she’s quick to warm up and incredibly friendly once she feels safe. She prefers a calm introduction and a little patience — and in return, you’ll get a best friend for life. Lilo has a moderate-high energy level. A long walk or jog each day, or playing with another dog in the home would meet her needs nicely. She likes to play with toys if her humans are included too. If there is a fenced yard, we recommend at least four feet tall — Lilo can jump! While she’s not a fan of car rides and can be a little anxious in new situations, Lilo has adjusted beautifully in her foster home. She’s smart, well-mannered, and eager to please — a perfect mix of cuddly companion and energetic playmate.
