Lily
Lucy and Lily were rescued from an over-crowded city shelter at only 6 weeks old. They were found dumped at a mall parking lot. They were timid at first but warmed up at their foster home. π Super huge thanks to their HERO Foster Home for rushing out to the shelter to pick them up, buying all their food supplies, and caring for them. Both are healthy, chubby and now playful. Super cuties. They need home puppy care, TLC, healthy foods, and supervision with training/socialization. They need another foster home to care for them, take to next vet appt and ready after 8 weeks old for adoption. Lucy seems more out-going. Lily is a little timid. More info. to come from their foster home on each of the pups.
**Note: Adoption in SF Bay Area Only**
