fit. She was said to prefer being an inside doggo and was having issues with the other female dogs in the sled yard. She was said to LOVE male dogs and select females she did better with. It is very important that slow, safe, and controlled introductions are made to set her up for success. Lilly does have a timider demeanor but was said to be very friendly once she warms up to you. She was also said to be more of a laid-back dog and enjoys going on her walks, but was not interested in going at a faster pace. She was also said to be potty-trained (will pace at the door) but does not know her basic commands. Lilly is hoping that she can find the right fit and home that can help her adjust and thrive! If you are interested in meeting Lilly, please let us know! 08/01/26 Miss Lilly was returned to the shelter because she was not adjusting to indoor life very well in her most recent home. Lilly was said to have become destructive, and she needs some help mastering potty training. Lilly does have experience living outside from her previous home, and she does seem comfortable in a sled dog yard with other dogs nearby to keep her company! She can be shy around strangers but she is an absolutely sassy husky once she gets comfortable! She got a full brush out on intake by the care staff, and she had some OPINIONS about it! Give us a call, if you are looking for a sweet, silly girl who just needs a little fine tuning! 07/11/26 This sweet, shy girl is Lilly! Lilly was brought to the shelter because the neighbors kept complaining about the beautiful songs she sings when alone. Lilly is used to having at least one dog buddy around, so when she lost her partner in crime she expressed her sorrow in song form. Miss Lilly has lived both inside and outside on a tie out. She was said to be kennel trained, housebroken and mushing/skijor trained! She was said to generally mind well and to do well with most humans. She can be shy around strangers, and she does not have experience around babies. She loves other dogs, and she is curious about cats and will follow them around. Please make sure any and all introductions are done in a safe and controlled manner, and keep in mind that some cats may not appreciate being shadowed by a 50 pound dog. She loves affection and was described as shy but friendly, affectionate and gentle. Lilly has been known to dig, but she was said to generally mind well and to do well in the car. If you are interested in meeting Miss Lilly, please give the shelter a call!

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
