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.

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.

Copper - Fospice

Copper went into fospice with long-time Lily’s foster and friend, Dinah (and resident dog, King!). We are thrilled for this trio who is already settling in nicely together and elated that Copper gets to spend his days in a loving family.

​Ollie - Fospice

Mary Louise is a long-time Lily’s supporter and GSD lover! She has worked with several other GSD rescues and had an opening to foster. When Ollie was looking for a fospice home, we had a feeling it would be a perfect match. Mary Louise came to meet him, along with Pax, a previous foster who she still watches frequently. Ollie and Pax got along wonderfully and Mary Louise agreed to take our sweet Ollie home to fospice. This deserving little boy has hit the jackpot!

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.
