TILLY - SHEPHERD / HUSKY / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Shepherd / Husky / Mixed. Adoption Fee: $200. Meet Tilly! ❤️ Tilly is a beautiful Lab, Shepherd, and Husky mix who came to us as an owner surrender after her previous family was no longer able to care for her. While her world has changed quite a bit, this sweet girl is slowly learning that new experiences can be exciting. Tilly had very little socialization before arriving at the shelter and had never even been on a leash, so she's discovering many "firsts" with us every day. She can be shy and nervous when faced with unfamiliar situations, but once she begins to trust you, her gentle, affectionate personality shines through. She loves being close to her people and has so much love to give. Tilly is looking for a patient family that will continue helping her build confidence through positive reinforcement and gentle guidance. She does have a strong prey drive and is not a good fit for a home with chickens, ducks, or other small livestock. She has also tested positive for Lyme disease, which is a tick-borne illness. The good news is that many dogs with Lyme disease go on to live happy, normal lives with appropriate veterinary care and monitoring. Some dogs never develop symptoms, while others may occasionally experience joint soreness or fatigue, making routine checkups and following your veterinarian's recommendations important. We are still getting to know Tilly and will continue to update her profile as we learn more. If you're looking for a loyal companion and have the patience to help a deserving dog learn what it means to be part of a loving family, Tilly may be the perfect match. She has already come so far, and with the right home, her best days are still ahead.
