# Meet Lily — I Lost My Dad, and Now I Need Someone to Love Me Again
Hi everyone. My name is Lily.
I'm a beautiful little white fluffy girl, weighing just 12 pounds. I was born on July 24, 2018, and I'm a Jack Russell Terrier/Poodle mix.
I'm already spayed, up to date on my vaccines, microchipped and crate trained.
I will travel from north California to Ridgefield, WA to live by the end of October with my foster family. I can travel to Vancouver, BC if there is a potential family for me.
My adoption fee is $800 US

Here is my story:
I have a story to tell you, and I hope you'll stay long enough to hear it.
You see, I used to have everything a little dog could ever dream of.
I had a home.
I had a warm place to sleep.
And most importantly, I had my dad.
He was my whole world.
From the time I was just a tiny puppy, my dad loved me, cared for me, and made me feel like the luckiest little girl alive.
I never had to wonder if I was loved.
I knew.
Every single day.
But this year, something happened that changed my whole world.
My dad passed away.
And suddenly, the person I loved most in this world was gone.
I don't understand why he isn't coming back.
I just know that everything feels different without him.
Now, at 8 years old, I find myself looking for something I never thought I'd need again.
A family.
A home.
Someone to love.
But please don't think I'm a sad little girl all the time.
I still have so much happiness and love inside me!
I'm a friendly, affectionate girl who absolutely adores everyone I meet.
I love other dogs, cats, and even chickens, sheep, and goats! I guess you could say I believe everyone deserves to be my friend.
I'm completely house-trained, I walk beautifully on a leash, and I have wonderful manners.
I also love being close to my humans.
If you're sitting on the couch, I'd love to be beside you.
If you need a cuddle, I'm your girl.
And if you're looking for someone who will happily shower you with affection, I have eight years of practice!
My beautiful white fluffy coat needs regular grooming, but I promise I'm worth every brush and haircut.
I'm already spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.
I'm ready to find my next home.
I know I can never replace my dad.
And nobody will ever replace the special place he holds in my heart.
But I also know he would want me to be safe, happy, and loved.
So here I am, hoping that somewhere out there is another person who has a little room in their home and a very big space in their heart.
I'm not a tiny puppy anymore.
But I'm not an old girl ready to give up on life either.
I still have adventures to enjoy, kisses to give, and so many cuddles waiting for someone special.
I don't need a perfect home.
I just need someone who will love me as much as my dad did.
Someone who will look at me and say:
"Come here, Lily. You're home now."
I was lucky enough to know what unconditional love feels like.
Now I'm hoping for a second chance to feel it again.
Could you be my next forever person?
Love,
Lily
