Tilly seems to get overlooked a lot, and we get it. A lot of people like the scruffies, fluffies and the hypos but boy are they missing out. This girl is up for hiking, strolls in the park and also happy to cozy up for movie night.

Tilly is a very sweet, sensitive gal that loves all the attention being good brings her. She is eager to please. Tilly is very food oriented and so as her trust in you grows, she will learn whatever you are wanting her to learn if it’s followed by a tasty reward. She walks easily on a long leash in the woods with no pulling and on a short leash in the park. Although her prey drive is strong, she no longer rushes to chase squirrels or chipmunks. She LOVES to run off leash and would be thrilled to have a larger property that she could run top speed around.

Tilly is house trained and can be left loose in the home for short periods of time. She is typically quiet but will bark when visitors arrive in the home, then settles down once the excitement is over.

While Tilly was perfectly happy in her open soft crate at night, she was invited up to the big bed and that is her happy place now.

With proper introduction she does well meeting other dogs, as long as not too many dogs at once as that can be overwhelming. Seldom does she play with toys but when she does, she has a great time. She loves her daily walks in the woods and in the fields. She is coming around to meeting people with a little interest now. Having guests offer a treat or two, is very helpful in her introductions.

Her ideal home would have a large, fenced yard with easy outdoor access as she loves to sunbathe and run free in the yard. While she has not been kid tested, we think she would be most comfortable in an adult home; she’s not super playful and prefers a calm space.
