Tilly is a sweet, smart, and gentle soul who brings a serene and peaceful energy wherever she goes. She is a clever girl with wonderful manners, making her an absolute dream to share a home with. Her daily rhythm is delightfully simple: pleasant walks throughout the day interspersed with generous, cozy naps. She is the ultimate nap buddy, always happy to lounge right beside you while keeping a curious, watchful eye on whatever her humans and her brother are doing. When Tilly wants affection, she has the most endearing way of asking: she will gently place her paw on you or lean her body right against yours. You will always know she is in good spirits by her happy, rhythmic tail wiggles. When visitors arrive, she greets them politely with a wagging tail, taking a moment to quietly observe and sometimes offering a soft bark hello to welcome them in. Tilly feels most secure when cuddled up close with her favorite people. If a sudden loud noise catches her off guard, a few gentle words of reassurance are all she needs to feel relaxed again. As a mature lady, her idea of fun is simply taking in the world around her, enjoying soft snuggles, and tracking the household happenings. She is a star when it comes to home skills, being fully house-trained, walking nicely on a leash, and knowing her basic commands. Living with Tilly means having a loyal, calm, and deeply affectionate companion who has shared her whole life alongside her brother. If you are seeking a gentle, intelligent dog who brings pure sweetness and quiet joy to every day, Tilly is ready to warm your heart. ---- Adopting a senior dog is like getting a vintage car - it comes with character, a few extra quirks, and might need a bit more maintenance. Expect occasional tune ups at the vet for oil changes (aka meds), and embrace the fact that those 'normal lumps and bumps' are just part of the well-earned charm package! Ruff Start will share all known health information with adopters and recommendations to keep your Senior dog in top shape.
