Lily is a 1 1/2
year old pit bull. She's spayed, has had all of her shots, is
heartworm negative & on heartworm prevention (we use
Iverhart Max, which prevents heartworms, & controls
roundworms, hookworms & tapeworms). When we found her near
the end of July '09 at the plant my boyfriend & I work at,
she was very malnourished & covered in mange. But Lily is a
very healthy & happy dog now, as you can tell by the
pictures. The first picture is Lily when we first brought her
home. The others are her, later, when she recovered. She gets
along well with our other dogs (even the small ones, but Lily's
just too playful with them) & she walks VERY well on a
leash. Lily seems to do well with children, as we came across a
few on our walks. She loves people & is very happy to meet
them. She is a very loving & trusting dog, so we are going
to make sure that she gets a good home. We haven't kept her with
our cats, so we don't know how Lily will react to cats. She has
stayed outside since we brought her home (we have eight other
animals so we couldn't keep her in the house), but we believe
that she'll be house-trained very well. We love Lily very much,
& if we could keep her, we would. But we live in the city
limits & have too many pets as it is. The only reason we
picked her up is because we couldn't leave her there to die. Our
plan was to make her healthy & find her a home. We've spent
over $500.00 on her to get her to this point. We are asking for
only $50.00 for her adoption. A few people actually asked
"what's wrong with her" because we are ONLY asking for
$50.00. It's because we aren't looking to make a profit; we just
want to find her a loving home. I think it's also because these
people were looking to breed he & THEY sell the puppies for
HUNDREDS of dollars. That's ONE of the reasons we got her
spayed: LILY IS NOT A BREEDER. We know what happens to the dogs
that are used for breeding. Once they can no longer produce
puppies ($$ to the breeder), they are no longer needed. Lily
will make a great pet--to the right person. Many want pits to
fight or breed, so it's been very hard finding her a GOOD home.
The other animals we found are also needing homes, but we must
find a home for Lily, first.
We hope that you will contact us if you have any questions about
Lily.
She is a smart dog & needs a home with lots of play-time
& love.
