Lily

Lily was found as a stray and taken to a shelter where emergency surgery was performed on her for a life threatening hernia when she was only 9 weeks old! She recovered beautifully with the help of her Sunny Saints Foster family and soon was a happy, healthy puppy that liked to play hard and nap harder! Angelina and Jeremy Dukesherer quickly adopted our sweet Saint Bernard mix (possibly Australian Shepherd?) and we wish them a lifetime of happiness together!

Baby Lily is a perfect angel. She is everything we hoped for and much, much more.

The car ride home was long, but she rode it out like a champ. Jeremy set up the back of the Element just for her. She was very comfortable on her tempur-pedic bed. She never got nervous or anxious the entire way.

Lily has been eating great... voracious appetite. And sleeping like a baby with us all through the night. She's truly amazing and special.

And she is so cute going up and down the stairs. She hops like a bunny. Two paws on each step.

With much gratitude.

Baby Lily has adjusted fantastically. She continues to be the happiest, best puppy ever!

Lily went to her first day of Puppy Pre-school today. She had no problems. She passed their enrollment testing "with flying colors" and was accepted immediately. She was right at home with all of the dogs, big and small. Lily
was the youngest one there, but quickly made friends with Bernie (3 month old St. Bernard). Lily has been enrolled in Puppy Training which starts on Oct 23rd. She can't wait.

Lily is not having any indoor accidents...she found her favorite spot outdoors in the back of the house. She's ben walking great on the leash. She did great with her bath & blow dry today.

Jeremy & I feel so lucky to have been gifted with the Best Puppy ever. Thank you to Sunny Saints for rescuing Lily, particularly to Kim, who provided great support during the adoption process. Thank you to Kathi & family who
provided love, attention, early socialization & a safe home for Lily in her early weeks of life.  Baby Lily will always remember Rover, Ranger, Indigo & Emma.
