Lila (fka Butternut) joined her new adoptive family in December 2022. Her adoptive dad provided this nice update about her. She is living her best life!
"Everything is going great. We decided to name her Lila, which suits her and she seems to love. Lila is getting close to 50 lbs now and just lost the last of her puppy teeth. We did training with her and she is doing fairly well with it, most of it being our need to practice with her a little more. She is sweet, loving and silly, but also very smart. She has been a great addition to the family and we are so happy to have her. We just took her to the OB dog beach for the first time and she did great and had a blast. We took her to the Penasquitos hike as well (just did 2 miles) and she loved that too."
Lila (fka Butternut) was adopted in December 2022. Her adoptive dad shared this cute photo and wonderful "pupdate" about her:
"We have renamed her Lila. She is a very happy and loving pup, who as been a great addition to our home. Lila is a little bigger at 60 lbs at her last vet visit. We were keeping an eye on Buttercup for a while, mostly out of curiosity. Maybe we should have them meet. Lila is very healthy and active. She has a ton of energy and always wants to play. She can get a little wound up, but will calm down if it is not appropriate to play. We walk 2x per day. She does like to chew things that are left around (usually when she is alone, she plays with her toys when we are around) and likes to dig quite a bit. She listens rather well and we did take her to an obedience class that was 6 weeks long. She listens fairly well overall, but she can be a little stubborn. She wants to be near us as much as possible. She gives hugs and loves just saying hi. She loves leaning on people when she says hi. She loves everyone and has gotten along with all dogs she has met. She likes to put her head on the shoulder of front seat passengers while she is on a car ride (see pic). I added a few recent pictures of her. We have not done a DNA test yet but if we do, we will share it with you. Not knowing is kinda fun because people try to guess what kind of dog she is. We are so pleased that we were able to rescue her!"
