Tilly Jean was at a kill shelter and she was next in line to be euthanized. She is four years old and was a puppy Mill Mom friendship APL Got her out and took her in. I did not want another dog because mine just died of cancer. I went to the APL due to my daughter wanted a kitten and I ran into Tilly Jean. Her real name is Jean Gray. She was so skinny you can see every bone in her body. it was awful. I could not leave her there so I adopted her and loved her for three months now taught her how to walk on a leash wear a collar settle down when I ask her to. She loves to cuddle at night. She loves to sleep by your head. She loves belly rubs, and she loves when you take your finger from her nose between her eyes and rub Their. She's so sweet not a mean bone in her body. I did finally get her weight on which is what I intended to do so I knew she was healthy and I knew she needed a good home. She will not eat dog kibble. She only eats lunch meat and cooked food. I don't know why I've tried everything. She loves her pig ears. She loves to play ball. She loves playing with her squeaky toys, and of course, tearing them apart I am crying as I am writing this as she is so sweet, but she's so energetic and needs more room to run my yard's not big enough. She gets depressed. If you don't take her out for a run so I take her to the fairgrounds and let her run off leash and she does come back to me when I call her. She's very sneaky and you cannot have any wood stacked or tables or chairs by a fence as she will climb on them and hop over the fence. You can have her off leash in your yard, but you have to keep your eye on her at all times because the minute you turn your back, she sneaks away. I can't break that habit. She's a hunting dog. She's just going on her smells as that is her breed. There's so much to say about her, but I'm sure you all don't want me to go on forever and ever on this page. If you have big yard or field or live on a farm, she would be a perfect animal for you if you're a hunter, I'm not sure exactly how she is. I have chickens and I ask her to round them up for me. She does that well, but if she corners one because I'm trying to catch it, she will try to kill it. She does not like baths at all. It took me forever to get her used to running a hose near her I got her to let me get her feet wet via using a water jug. She was beaten it took a long time for me to let her know that when I swatter fly or pick up a piece of wood to stack on my wood pile, she would be scared and she would cover. She is now over that fear I've worked with her day in and out. I think she turned out wonderful and she's so fun, loving and she has such a personality. I have videos of her if you would like me to send them to you thank you for reading.
