Tilly Willy, affectionately nicknamed Ms. Beefy, is a 3-year-old, 55 lb bundle of love. She's a short, stocky, and squishy lady who looks like she was assembled from a potato, a baby hippo, and pure affection. Tilly has the biggest puppy dog eyes, the squishiest face, and a happy-go-lucky personality that will make you smile. She genuinely loves people and will make you feel like the best part of her day, every day. She may look bigger in photos, but she's actually what we call a "small big dog" – perfect for cuddling.
Ideal Home
Tilly is incredibly sweet and forms strong bonds with her people, making her an ideal best friend, shadow, couch buddy, and biggest fan. She's lived with a single mom who works from home and a busy 2-year-old boy, handling all the toddler chaos beautifully. She has also spent plenty of time with children under 9 and has been wonderfully patient, gentle, and happy around them. While she might offer a quick, short-lived jump when meeting new people or children, she responds well to gentle corrections and quickly learns boundaries.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in her listing.
Training & Support
Tilly is mostly chill, with bursts of energy for exciting moments like meals or greeting her favorite people. She's crate trained and quiet in her kennel, though she enjoys free-roaming privileges as she's a trustworthy houseguest. She is fully potty trained, has excellent house manners, has never had an accident, and is not destructive. Tilly walks well on a leash, doesn't bark at other dogs, and can be easily corrected if she pulls slightly towards a squirrel. She is selective with toys, preferring affection, but she is a foodie and enjoys snacks. She has excellent manners around food and has never stolen from her toddler housemate.
