Lilly

Mixed Breed · Female

Lilly 01/2015 | female I am Lilly and have been living at __SHELTH0__ for quite some time. It’s mostly my own doing – I know… I may be rather small, but I try to make up for my size with a bit of “bad behavior.” So, my first impression on people is usually a negative one. I don’t know why, but I can’t help it 🙁 With other dogs, I get along just fine, and I love going for walks with people I know… I can be so adorable and am an absolute cuddle cat once you get to know me. It can sometimes happen very quickly. Suddenly, I decide I no longer want to bark and threaten, but would rather crawl into you to snuggle. Then you can do anything with me and the matter is settled – until I see someone I don’t know… It can be that I turn back into my little “fury” and try to protect you with all my might. I need people who look beyond my “facade” and give me the chance to show you how loving I can be. It would be the most beautiful thing if I could finally build trust and find peace with people who show me that they aren’t deterred by my first impression and win my heart???

Lilly 01/2015 | weiblich Ich bin Lilly & lebe schon länger auf dem Schlatthof. Das liegt vor allem an mir selbst – ich weiß… Ich bin zwar recht klein, aber ich versuche die Größe mit „Zickengehabe“ wettzumachen. Somit ist der erste Eindruck den Menschen von mir bekommen immer eher negativ.Ich weiß auch nicht warum, aber ich kann nicht anders 🙁Mit anderen Hunden komme ich prima klar, mit Menschen die ich kenne, gehe ich gerne Gassi & überall hin…Ich kann sooo liebenswert sein & bin eine absolute Kuschelmaus, wenn ich Dich erstmal kennengelernt habe.Das kann manchmal sehr schnell gehen. Urplötzlich entscheide ich mich dazu nicht mehr zu kläffen & zu drohen, sondern möchte am liebsten in Dich reinkriechen um zu schmusen.Dann kannst Du alles mit mir machen & die Sache ist erledigt – bis ich wieder jemanden Fremden sehe…Kann gut sein, dass ich im ersten Moment leider wieder zu der kleinen „Furie“ werde & versuche, Dich mit allen Mitteln zu beschützen. Ich brauche Menschen, die hinter meine „Fassade“ schauen & mir die Chance geben, Ihnen zu zeigen wie lieb ich sein kann. Am schönsten wäre es bei Menschen, wo ich endlich Vertrauen aufbauen & zur Ruhe kommen kann. Wer zeigt mir, dass er sich nicht vom allerersten Eindruck abschrecken lässt & gewinnt dadurch mein Herz??? Lilly Lilly Lilly Lilly

About Lilly

What life with Lilly looks like

Lilly is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Menschen für Tiere in Oberndorf a.N..

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lilly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lilly?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Menschen für Tiere handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lilly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lilly if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Menschen für Tiere will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Lilly already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Lilly isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Menschen für Tiere early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lilly and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
