Lily is my name, but quite often my foster mom calls me Lillian. I think I get called Lillian when I get into puppy mischief, which is most of the time. I am a sweet girl who seeks lots of attention from my people. I just can't get enough of them. I came to the rescue about two months ago after I had an operation on my hip. With some recovery time and therapy I have come a long way and I am now looking for my forever home. I love to play all the time with my toys, I throw the ball myself and chase it. I am friendly, outgoing and always looking for something to get into. I would do best in a home where my family will be willing to train me because I am so smart. My foster mom says that I will need to go to a home with NO cats. I terrorize the ones that I live with now. (I would love to have them for lunch, perhaps with a touch of wasabi). I love children, but I am really rough with them, so I would do best in a home with children over 10 years old. I really like my crate, I will go take a nap in there all the time on my own. I am house-trained and up-to-date on all my shots. Although donations of all types are needed, our primary need is foster homes for our lovely dogs while they wait for their new family to find them. Fostering is an extremely rewarding experience. Vet care is paid for by our rescue, and we can even provide you with food. All YOU need to add is love and security.
The adoption process starts with the applicant filling out the adoption application. This can happen at any time during the process, before or after having met a GSD that might be the ideal companion. (It's an advantage to have a pre-approved application on file with VGSR. It should be stressed here that being pre-approved does not mean that any potential adopter can select any available dog at will and take that dog home immediately. VGSR will exercise its best judgement as to which GSD will be the best match for that specific adopter based on a number of qualifying criteria. Many GSDs that come to us are matched up with their new people very quickly because their people have been pre-approved.) The applicant then submits the application form with a non-refundable $10.00 processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $200.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed. More about LilyNot Good with Cats
