Meet Lilly!
*Good with dogs
*Good with kids
Lilly is one of those dogs you will instantly fall in love with, yes she is a senior beagle, but with the right care and love she will make someone a great companion. When she arrived she was very skinny, double ear infection, her teeth rotten and infected; clearly neglect had taken its toll. Thanks to the team at Green Veterinary Clinic her teeth are fixed; ears are healed, and she is now living the high life in her foster home with copious amounts of doggy stew and treats to help get her back to a healthy weight.
Lilly enjoys the company of other dogs (but would do just fine as the only dog) and has tried really, really hard to friend the resident cat with no luck! When she gets scared or is unsure she will find the nearest pillow and hide underneath it. She’s got the Beagle bay though the only time you hear it is when you first get home and she doesn’t want you to forget she’s there, otherwise she doesn’t make a sound. Her favorite place to lounge is on the couch, loves going for walks (does great on a leash), and sleeps right next to you in bed at night. She’s EXTREMELY food motivated and has shown absolutely NO aggression (food or otherwise).
She has come a long, long way in the potty training arena, still has a few accidents, but now goes to the door when she needs to go outside. Who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.. She’s also learning in order to get a treat, she needs to sit.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance. Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
