Lilly might be your perfect match! She’s a gentle sweetheart who adores people, cuddles, and calm companionship.

She loves meeting new people and leans in for pets and cuddles. She’s quiet for a beagle, with the exception of a few happy squeals when you come home!

She’s typically clean overnight and has done well when left loose for shorter periods.She would absolutely love to sleep in bed with her humans and will thrive with a family that’s home more often or can give her regular potty breaks (ideally every 3 hours).*Activities & Interests*Lilly isn’t much for toys, but she loves long walks, sniffing everything, and of course, cuddling. She`s all about calm, affectionate bonding time with
