About TILLY

TILLY was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas, where dogs generally have just 3 days to be saved before they are killed for space. TILLY is spayed, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, heartworm tested negative and micro-chipped. She has an estimated date of birth of 18 April 2010 and weighs around 14.20 pounds. She has been listed as a Cairn Terrier Fox Terrier Mix. We have no way of knowing the exact breed, so it is up to individuals to decide what breed they think is most likely. TILLY doens't act 8 years old, she is pretty active, very playful, she is great with other dogs, but not too bothered in playing with them all the time, she likes to follow me around and will get a silly mood and spin around when I go over to feed and clean. She has a mischievous streak in she was trying to pull the to the other side of the fence she was on and started pulling it apart. She loves to have mad dashes and spins around in her crazy moments. We do not have cats or livestock at the rescue, so we cannot comment on how she would respond or act with or around them. A volunteer brought her young granddaughter over and she was great with her, initially she was a little bit shy, but soon warmed up and very loving and wanting to get lots of attention. TILLY does use the dog door to go out to do her business. I do not know if she would let you know she needs to go out since she has 24/7 access to the outside, so it is important to note she will most likely need some training. She is going to need a family that is used to small dogs. Someone who understand that he will need training and guidance and learns that humans are in charge so that he doesn't get too much of a handful. A somewhat active family who can give him the lifestyle that she needs. Going on road trips, to new places, hikes and adventures and letting her explore the sights, smells and sounds the world has to offer will be to his and your benefit. �'��We do not recommend dog parks for several weeks, if not months, it is so very important for families and dogs to form a strong bond and get to know each other before exposing them to the potential dangers of dog parks. Although all GaDaH dogs are very well socialized with other dogs, lots of other dogs have not had the benefit of this socialization and do not always know how to play and act with other dogs. You also do not know the control the other families have over their dogs and you should always have a good recall for your adopted dog before going to dog parks. TILLY is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.
