Lizzie is beautiful Beagle with a charming tricolor coat. She's around 6 years old and she's down to a robust 30 lbs. She's spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, and monthly prevention. She's spayed, up-to-date on all her vaccines, and has successfully completed her *heartworm treatment—she just needs her regular monthly preventatives to stay happy and healthy!

Lizzy is a total sweetheart and typical Beagle. She's incredibly food motivated, if her look into her darling doe eyes you can tell she was once a skilled con artist who exploited her beauty for tasty treats and the finer foods in life. When she arrived in June she weighed over 38 lbs! With exercise, portion control, and weight control kibble she's down to 30 lbs.

Loving Lizzy is crate trained, great on a leash, and loves car rides! This sweet girl can be a bit skittish and is still adjusting to living the indoor dog life. She adores time in the yard where she can safely sniff and explore to her heart's content. Like many hounds, she's a clever girl and problem solver. In 2021, when she was with her first foster, she decided to show how she could climb a 6' chainlink fence. Her current foster reports that Lizzy has shown no interest in leaving the yard, much less climbing the fence to do so.

Lizzy is working on house and potty training. Her nervous nature can overtake her curiosity and distract her from doing her business outside. Like many dogs working on potty training and socialization skills, she would benefit from a fenced yard but its not required as she does well on a leash.

Speaking of dog friends, Lizzy loves other dogs! She's done well meeting other dogs of all sizes. Her milder more submissive demeanor tends to make her easy to introduce to new dogs. She's gained confidence from having doggie friends. She'd benefit from having a doggie friend in her new home for companionship, socialization, and to show her household routine. A doggie friend isn't a requirement, especially if you're home most of the day. Lizzy is a total love sponge and would adore her own person.

Lizzy is progressing beautifully and is ready for her fur-ever home with dedicated, loving adopters. As a Beagle, she needs people who can help her with her weight loss journey. Though its not required, she'd adore a fenced yard to play and continue potty training. She'd love to go to a home with a confident canine friend. She'd also happily be a wonderful companion to humans who are home most of the day. Speaking of humans, she hasn't met any kids. Since she can be a little shy, she'd do best in a calmer home with dog-savvy older kids or teens.

*Note: Lizzy completed heartworm injections and is on monthly heartworm medication until she's tested again in April/May 2027. Lizzy's new family will receive the necessary medication to continue her treatment between now and her test.
