About Tilly

Tilly has fully embraced the luxurious indoor lifestyle after spending part of her life surviving on the streets. Nowadays, she loves surveying her kingdom from a chair or peeking out of a flowerpot. When you pull out your shoes and her leash, she springs into action, ready for an adventure. And if a sock goes missing while you're folding laundry, Tilly’s collection is likely the place to look. This Beagle/Heeler mix is full of curiosity and humor. She enjoys her walks, happily sniffing her way around the neighborhood and greeting friendly canine companions along the way. Tilly loves back scratches and has a quirky habit of nibbling toes when she wants attention. Although busy streets can be overwhelming, her confidence continues to blossom. Having another dog around helps boost Tilly's confidence; she looks to her canine friends for guidance. A home with a friendly, confident resident dog would be ideal for her. While she appreciates the company, Tilly doesn’t require constant human presence and settles well when left alone, making her a great fit for a typical working household. An adopter who patiently allows Tilly to explore the world at her own pace will be rewarded with her affectionate and goofy personality. If you’re seeking a rescue dog with plenty of charm, Tilly might just be the perfect match for you. Addicus' Legacy Dog Rescue has helped her find joy in indoor living, and she's eager to keep exploring—one sniff and one stolen sock at a time. Tilly is ready for transport to the Greater Philadelphia area, facilitating adoptions across Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey, and Delaware. Adoption arrangements can be discussed during the process. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
