Just 1 year old and cute as a button. Lilly is a mix breed lab possibly crossed with shepherd. Her happy puppy disposition certainly made me laugh during her Meet & Greet. Lilly's mom has been on our waiting list for quite some time. Thank you for being so patient. We are delighted to welcome this little bundle of energy. Lilly already has several friends around the neighbourhood as well as her siblings. She was one of the pups that came up for adoption at LAAS (Lillooet Animal Advocates Society) earlier this year.
I'll add that link soon. (when I finally find it)
During her M&G Lilly romped and played and sniffed every corner of the property.
She even found where the neighbourhood kitties did their business under 'Cora'! Oh Man!
Sorry Lilly's mom!
Lilly found all the toys scattered around the yard and then found the basket full of stuffies on the porch. She never hesitated a moment to empty it and find just the right one to run and play with. Her favourites seem to be stuffies and if they have a squeaker? Well that's even better.
Capturing a photo was not an easy feat. She's a zoomer! |
Lilly's manners are well on the road to being spot on. I believe she'll learn our house rules quickly and will fit into our Royal extended pack easily.
It's quite clear that mom and dad have already spent a great deal of time on her training. When mom speaks, Lilly listens and responds accordingly. Most of the time, after all she IS A PUPPY!

She'll be among a few other youngsters, around her age, coming into Royal K9 lately for daycare. She'll make lots of friends. She'll be brushing up on her communication skills with the new friends. Being a puppy means she wants to play and some of our mature visitors will be teaching her the doggy sign for, "I've had enough." and "it's not playtime". I expect to be bringing my x-pen out a few times. Quiet time for puppies is a more difficult task to learn. She'll have a few pretty good communicators to learn from.
Lilly already has a few days booked to stay with us. We can't wait for her to meet everyone.
Lilly - "to heck wiv quiet time. Let's just play!" |
