Tilly's Story

Approximate Age: 3 years | Approximate Weight: 45 lbs <br/> <br/>Hi, I'm Tilly! <br/>I'm a "volunteer favorite" - I'm very easy to love once you give me a minute to show you my heart.<br/><br/>I'm a slow-burn kind of girl, give me 3 days to get comfortable and I'll show you just how special I am. I like to observe first, then gently melt into your life. If you're patient and calm, I'll reward you with loyalty, soft eyes, and top-tier companionship.<br/><br/>* I thrive around quiet, gentle humans who move slowly while I gain confidence <br/>* I am the queen of soft places - I loveee to lay in bed or on the couch!

I have opened up so much since arriving at the shelter, please give me a chance to show you <br/><br/>I am amazing with other dogs - like, truly, I feel unstoppable when I'm with them. They help me feel safe and show me the world isn't so scary. So my perfect forever home must include another dog friend for me to live with. Not optional.
