Our Long-Term Foster and Fospice Dogs
Fospice: Foster homes or sanctuaries which provide end-of-life comfort and care to terminally ill or elderly shelter animals until they're ready to pass on to the Rainbow Bridge.
Thank you!
• They say there’s a nobility in making an animal’s last days their happiest, best days •
Nala - Fospice
Our sweet boy has gone to a fospice home! A woman named Michelle lives here in Petaluma, and runs her own doggie daycare, where our very own cuddlers, Sue and Jim take their doggo. Michelle saw Nala on our website and fell in love.
We weren't sure how Nala would do with the other dogs on the property, as he initially had some challenges here, likely due to his sight loss. Well, Katie took him over for a meet and greet at Michelle's, and he FIT RIGHT IN, striding right in with the other dogs, making friends with some of the toughest canine critics at the daycare! He got to stay right there and then! We are thrilled this boy in in his fospice home, where he will get all the love and attention and care he needs and deserves!

Tank - Fospice
Tank was swooped up by a wonderful woman who saw him on our website. After recently becoming a widow, she felt ready to bring a dog into her home. Her previous dog's name was Hank and Tank's bio spoke to her. We miss our old boy very much here at Lily's, but we are so happy he finally found his home.

Copper - Fospice
Sweet Copper has gone into fospice with Lily’s very own volunteer Priscila. He is one lucky pup and is settling into his new digs!
Copper has an inoperable liver mass that makes him a hospice dog. In addition, he suffers from doggy dementia which causes some confusion and aloofness, but at the heart of it all, Copper is as sweet as can be.

Gemma - Long-term Foster
Appropriately named, this lovable girl is a true Gem! Hailing from Southern CA, Gemma will charm you with her honey-eyed gaze, beautiful golden locks and affinity for cuddling. She’s an active girl who loves to go for walks and adventures.
Once properly acquainted, Gemma is a very affectionate girl. While it’s tempting to shower Gemma with lots of love and affection, she prefers slow introductions allowing her a chance to warm up. It doesn’t take long for her to bring you into the fold, giving endless kisses followed by a huge grin and request for belly rubs.

Buddy - Fospice
Buddy is an 8 year old Yellow Lab. At intake, his bloodwork showed some abnormalities that needed to be checked out with an ultrasound. Sadly, they found he had an inoperable adrenal mass. Buddy is now a hospice pup, his life expectancy is six months to a year.
That’s the bad news, but here’s the good/great/best news….Buddy will spend the rest of his days in the loving arms of Rebecca & Travis at Treasured Hearts Ranch. When we called to tell them about Buddy, without hesitation they said “Yes, we’ll take him”. He is their 5th Lily’s hospice pup. Before Buddy, Copper & Sienna, Huxley and Goldey all had the best possible final chapters of their lives at Treasured Hearts Ranch. We are beyond grateful to Rebecca & Travis, they are extraordinary people and truly amazing Lily’s Angels.
