Lilah came in as a stray, so her background is unknown, and she is still learning that people can be safe and kind. She can be fearful and cautious at first but she continues to check back in with soft body wiggles and tail wags as she gains confidence. Lilah enjoys staying close to her person and leans into gentle affection—especially ear scratches. With patience, a calm environment, and time to decompress, Lilah has the potential to blossom into a loyal and loving companion.

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments.
