About Tillie

Meet Tillie! Tillie is a 2-year-old Labrador Retriever mix with a heart full of love. Rescued as a stray, she faced challenges in the shelter, but has truly blossomed in her foster home. At around 70 pounds, she might be a big girl, yet she embodies a gentle giant: calm, affectionate, and incredibly sweet. Tillie gets along well with dogs, cats, children, and everyone she meets. She is potty trained, crate trained, and well-behaved indoors. This girl is still learning to embrace her doggy side—whether it's enjoying walks, chewing on bones, or emptying the toy basket of its contents. As part of our Bark & Heal program, she has shown remarkable patience and attentiveness with kids, picking up new training quickly. Watching Tillie come out of her shell has been a joy, and she is now eager to find a family that will provide her with the safe, loving home she truly deserves.
