tilly

4 year old, 70lb Tilly found herself at North Central Shelter in March of 2026. She came in with a microchip, meaning she had a possible owner, but nobody came to claim her. In dog playgroups and with volunteers, Tilly was described as gentle, tolerant, and friendly with people and dogs. Due to stress in her kennel, she became at risk of euthanasia so our team at Dog Coalition sprung into action and with the help of a dedicated foster were able to get her into a foster home in April.

Tilly is a gentle soul blossoming more and more with each passing day. Since coming into foster care, this beautiful girl has been winning hearts left and right with her calm nature and growing love of cuddles. She took to crate training immediately and considers the crate her own cozy sanctuary. She even loves sleeping in it overnight! Tilly is also working on her leash and walking skills with her signature calm and good behavior. We have no doubt she'll be a lovely walking companion in no time.

Tilly shares her foster home with two smaller, more relaxed dog sisters, and she fits in perfectly with their laid-back energy. Her play style is dainty and considerate, always matching the energy of the other dogs. She has also been slowly and carefully meeting her cat foster siblings, and so far she's showing calm curiosity without any signs of prey drive or aggression. We believe she would do well in a home with dog and/or cat siblings!

She loves finding the sunniest spot in the yard to soak in. Whether she's napping in a warm patch of sunlight or rolling over for a belly rub with someone she trusts, this girl knows how to enjoy the good life. She is warming up to new people faster and faster every day, and once she decides you're her person, she'll give you the whole belly.
