ALL OUR DOGS ARE PETS FOR PATRIOTS ELIGIBLE!
We're a shelter partner with Pets for Patriots.
If you're a veteran or active military please check them out. The charity's goal is to give the most overlooked pets a second chance at life through adoption. We've partnered with them because we have the same goal. Every one of our senior dogs is an eligible Pets for Patriots dog. Join Pets for Patriots - it's free - and you'll also receive discounted pet care at 2 of their veterinary partners: The Fairfax Veterinary Clinic and Petaluma's Washington Square Veterinary Clinic. |
We have so many wonderful companions that are waiting for you and the furever homes. Please be sure to "meet" them all here, then call us (707-787-7010) to meet them in person.

Lili
Lili, a 9 year old German Shepherd arrived at our sanctuary from an East Bay shelter. Allan, one of our volunteers came in for his shift and laid eyes on beautiful Lili. Allan has a soft spot for German Shepherds and it appeared right away to be mutual. Allan fostered for her so he could give her the time and guidance she needs to adjust to her new life. Update from foster dad, Allan… Fostering Lili has been a real treat! She’s one of those dogs that quickly finds a way into your heart!! When she first arrived, we checked out the house and the yard and it all met with her approval. She settled in quite easily and was very appreciative of being petted and praised as well as going for nice neighborhood walks. Lili is so easy-going, will approach with tail wagging to get some affection and then is very comfortable hanging out on her own! Chewing bones, not toys or treats, are her favorite! She loves car rides and calmly waits until I return from shopping. Lili loves meeting new people, but does react around other dogs - we’re working on this – and have seen big improvements in only one week! On our walks, we’ve seen deer and squirrel which she watches with great curiosity but doesn’t lunge after – not a strong prey drive (Yay!!). Lots of compliments on her beautiful coat!! Lili knows her basic commands, responds easily to gentle correction and loves to please. She’ll make a fabulous companion in her forever home! |
Rosie
Rosie is a 9 or 10 year old Golden/Nova Scotia Duck Toller mix from a Sutter County shelter. She was a stray and was released to Lily's after her seven day “hold” expired. Yes she's gorgeous! Her most favorite things: lying in a patch of cool grass or soft bed and hanging out with her human. She's not too taken (yet) with leash walks but she's housebroken and knows how to use her doggie door. |

Shelby
10 year old Golden Retriever "I’m a great girl…" Don't be fooled by her size. It just means she has more love to give. It will take time, but Shelby must lose weight (at least 30 lbs) and will for sure be even more active than she is now. She really likes going for walks and she's great in the car. This lovable gal seems to get along with everyone she meets, both two- and four-legged creatures. Shelby did live briefly with a kitten and didn't have any issues. We think Shelby would be happy in a home were she would get lots of short walks. Hopefully, when she loses weight, she will be able to swim and enjoy trips to the beach were she can walk in the soft sand. Happy, easy to please and sweet as sugar. If you’re looking for a cuddly pal to hang with you, she’s your girl. |
Diesel
This 10 year-old German Shepherd was surrendered to a Sutter County Shelter when his owner became ill and could no longer care for him. He lived with other dogs and he's politely meeting his new friends here at Lily's. The shelter tells us he did well with kids and adults. He walks well on a leash and is housebroken. Diesel is a gentle, friendly boy ready to bond with you. |

Martha
Martha is an 8 year-old Plott Hound who is looking for her forever home. She is an ideal companion, happiest when she is with you, yet also content to spend time curled up on her bed or playing with her favorite squeaky toy. She is a strong, active girl who loves to run, hike and go for walks. Her ideal family will be active and able to spend time with her outdoors going on adventures. Like most hounds, she does have a high prey-drive, and will chase small animals, cats, squirrels, etc. Martha has lived with other dogs and does well with them as long as she is properly introduced. Martha is spayed, housebroken and micro-chipped. One of our volunteers who comes to cuddle with our pups regularly, recently chose Martha as her cuddle partner for the afternoon. Here’s what she had to say… “Today was my first “cuddle time” with Martha. Each week when I go to Lily’s, Martha is on her cute little bed, watching what is happening around her. Wagging her tail to my “Hi Martha” greeting to her each week, she gives me the impression she is a very special girl. Well, today was a joyful day for me as Martha and I played with her ‘squeaky’ toys, sat together on her bed and had the best conversations! She is a well-behaved girl and will show you how she can Sit, Stay and Shake! I am hoping Martha finds the perfect match!” |

Spot
Spot came to us from the LA County shelter. His owner died on Thanksgiving day leaving Spot an orphan. The jury is still out on what breed this 10 year old neutered male might be. His head & body shape lean towards some type of Pointer. He is dog friendly but he will chase cats. He's a curious boy who likes to explore his surroundings and, as you can imagine, he loves his walks. He's great with people, loves to cuddle and it easy breezy to be around. Spot is a sweet, joyful pup who is healthy and ready to move on to his forever home. |

Bailey Doodle
Another sweetie pie makes her way to Lily's! "Everyone thinks I’m the perfect girl… super sweet, cuddly, gentle, friendly and I get along really well with people and pups." Bailey came to Lily's because her owner had to move to Australia. She is a very loving girl. She enjoys getting belly rubs and in return, she'll give you lots of kisses. Bailey does have a heart condition that will limit her activity level. She can still go for walks, but would definitely be happy to live a quiet, peaceful retirement. Bailey is just a very happy relaxed dog who would like to find a family of her own. If you’re looking for a girl who will fit right into your household, bringing lots and lots of love with her, then Bailey is your girl. This is one precious pup!! |

Henry
Our cute Henry, a 10 year old Rottie/Hound mix, came to Lily’s from the central valley where he was whisked from a shelter “just in time.” He weighs about 75 lbs and loves being outside – meandering around and sniffing. He’ll need a yard to explore. As long as he gets fed, gets to meander and has grass to relax on, he's happy. Henry likes to be petted but he’s not an overly affectionate fellow which could be due to the fact that he's quite deaf so NO hugs please - they may take him by surprise. He does want to be close by and if he sees you leave the room, he'll follow (maybe in hopes of that meandering sniff walk or a treat). And being deaf does not stop this boy from communicating. He will bark to let you know someone is coming to visit. Henry has occasional weakness in back legs, but you can't keep this curious guy down. Happy to meet you, he will saunter up, receive a pet, then wander off to roll in the grass & take a nap. He would be best in home with respectful older children and adults who understand the fact that he's deaf and will accommodate Henry's needs. No young ones who'd want to hug him. Henry gets along with low keyed dogs. Cats are encouraged to be introduced calmly. Offer him a soft bed, good meal and mutual respect and Henry will reward you with his whimsical presence. |
Myra
Myra is truly a diamond in the rough. She is an 8 year old English Lab with heart and soul of a 2 year old. Myra is great with her 4 legged companions at Lily’s. She is housebroken and healthy. Myra would be a great hiking or walking companion. She also enjoys playing fetch and will even bring the ball back. What we’ve discovered about Myra is that her favorite pastime is rolling over to get her belly rubbed. Myra has a real zest for life. She’s a wonderful gal and would love to have a family of her own. |

Bailey
Oh my goodness - what a sweet, sweet girl…
Bailey says, "Everyone thinks I’m the perfect girl… super sweet, cuddly, gentle, friendly and I get along really well with people and pups.
I came from a shelter in the central valley and am just getting settled at Lily’s. Everyone here loves me. I’ve been to the vet and am a healthy girl. I’m housebroken, microchipped, happy to go for a walk or cuddle on the couch with you and I smile all the time!!!"
If you’re looking for a girl who will fit right into your household, bringing lots and lots of love with her, then Bailey is your girl. Just don’t leave and breakable nicknacks on your coffee table. Her ever wagging tail might just clear it off. This is one precious pup!!

** COURTESY POST **
Boy,Boy (not a typo!!)
Once again we are doing a courtesy post for a dog in need of a new home. If you or someone you know is interested, please contact his owner directly at 209-277-7457 or rickriebe@yahoo.com. DO NOT CONTACT US PLEASE.
Hi, my name is Boy,Boy and I am 7 years young. I am very social, love children of all ages, have been around other dogs both small and large. I get along with everyone, my mom says that I would make a great therapy dog. I have worked in a chiropractor’s office to help those with PTSD and other ailments, I miss that.
I am looking for a new home because mom and dad travel 22 days out of the month, (I am just too big for those small hotel rooms). I spent time last year with a friend that had a small ranch. It was so much fun, I loved running and playing with the other animals (horses, cows and dogs).
I am up to date on all my shots. I have recently seen the vet, she says I am doing great and that I weigh 150 lbs. I have no problems, take no medication and I never have.
I am ready to go to my forever home so that mom and dad can travel. All of my siblings have moved out and WOW what an empty nest. If you think that you would have room for me I would love to meet you. Oh and I am truly a gentle giant. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
