Tilly Australian Shepherd & Border Collie Mix Troy, VA

Feb 12-2019 - If you can see this, Tilly has not yet found her forever home. PLEASE complete an adoption application if you are interested. Writing to inquire if she is available will only waste everyone's time. We will take the listing down when she is spoken for. Thank you.

*/*/* PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BELOW */*/*

Tilly is excited to finally announce her arrival at GDU!

This little Aussie/Border Collie mix baby came to us all the way from Texas.
As of 2/12/19, she is approx 8-9 weeks old, and thriving in her foster home. She even gets to go to work with foster mom and has made so many friends there!

Tilly is both deaf and vision impaired, so she is learning her commands through hand signals and touch. She already knows sit and come and is working on her crate training and house breaking. She will require continued professional, positive-reinforcement training using hand and touch signals.

Tilly LOVES to go in the car and have adventures, and is looking for a home to explore the world with. If you are interested in making this furry little marshmallow a part of your family, please visit greendogsunleashed.com for the adoption application. Tilly is being fostered in Orange VA.

We are happy to consider applicants from out of state. However, if the applicant is approved, they must be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the pup and family are a good fit, they would take the pup home at that time.

*/*/*Double Merle Aussies can make absolutely amazing furry family members for experienced dog owners. While we have shared all current medical concerns of this particular animal, it is important to note that double merle Aussies may potentially have considerable health concerns down the road, which may require both financial and emotional resources. Please keep this in mind while considering this, or any double merle Aussie pup. */*/*

GDU does ask a minimum adoption donation of 300.00. This is a minimum donation and does not cover all expenses, as we are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum donation includes DAPP, rabies if age appropriate,, heartworm test and preventative, if age appropriate, and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. This minimum donation does not even begin to cover the actual expenses each animal has while in rescue, but does go directly towards vet care for our rescue animals. In an attempt to avoid tummy upset from a sudden change of food, the foster family may include a small, transitional bag of the food the dog/puppy has been eating. And if the dog/puppy has grown attached to a special item (like a toy or blanket), they may send that along, as well.
