She was dumped over someone's back fence, crawling with fleas, wounds still open and bleeding. When I saw her, all I could say was "Something very bad happened to this dog". We can speculate all we want, but we don't know what happened that Friday night. What we do know is what happened next..
At many shelters, Lily's story would have ended here. There would be no next chapter. Here in Stillwater, we are lucky enough to have wonderful animal control officers that know scars on a Pit Bull don't mean it is a bad dog. Lily was seen by our veterinarian, her temperament was tested and she was brought into the Humane Society adoption program.
Lily is far from a bad dog. Lily is really a sweet marshmallow of a dog. I can take food and chewies right out of her mouth and trim her nails without complaint. She craves human attention and will whine shamelessly if she wants some love. And if you thought those scars were from something our sweet girl started..
Lily and Obi get ready to chase!
Some nose to nose time
The new buddies share a love of tennis balls
So there you have it. Our sweet Pit Bull princess is healthy, happy and ready to find a castle to live out the fairy tale ending she deserves. If you think you could be your Prince(ss) Charming, please come in and meet her!
