Lizzie (5) and Lilac (8) are a very special bonded mother and daughter duo who are searching for a patient and loving home together.
Both girls spent their entire lives in a puppy mill where they were used only for breeding. They lived in poor conditions with very little human interaction, socialization, or handling. Because of this, they came to us extremely overwhelmed by the world outside of the only life they had ever known.
When Lizzie and Lilac first arrived, they were terrified of their new surroundings. They spent most of their time hiding in the corner and struggled to adjust to the sudden change from their previous rabbit-hutch style living conditions. Over the past several months, they have been slowly working through rehabilitation and learning that people can be kind and that life can be safe and predictable.
Lilac, the mother, is understandably the more shy of the two. After spending eight years in a puppy mill without socialization, she is still very timid. She is not mean in any way and does enjoy gentle attention, but she will not seek it out and needs a patient person who understands that trust takes time.
Lizzie is a bit more outgoing than her mom and will come to people for attention once she gets to know them. Both girls are incredibly sweet and loving at heart, they simply need time and understanding to feel safe.
Lizzie and Lilac rely heavily on each other for comfort and confidence, and because of this strong bond they must be adopted together. They truly thrive on routine and having each other nearby.
Their future family must understand that these girls will need continued patience, consistency, and a slow transition into their new life. They are looking for a calm household willing to allow them to move at their own pace while continuing to build confidence.
Because they are still easily overwhelmed and can be flight risks, a secure fenced-in yard is required. They would do best in a quieter home without young children, as high energy environments can make them nervous. They are also not suitable for homes with cats.
Despite their difficult start in life, these girls have come so far during their time in rehabilitation. With the right family, patience, and continued guidance, Lizzie and Lilac have the potential to blossom into truly wonderful companions.
They have already endured more than most dogs ever should. Now they deserve the chance to experience what it means to finally be loved, safe, and home.
