This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally.

**Please read Tilly's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!**

Meet Tilly - a 1 year old, Heeler / Border Terrier mix, who weighs 27 pounds (as of 3/16/25).

Her foster shares: "This girl answers to Tilly....but really she should be called 'joy' because she is one energetic bundle of joy and love who is spreading happiness everywhere she goes. Tilly is sweet and happy! She bonds to her person quickly and loves being held and cuddled for the few moments she can spare from playing with her toys or playing with our other dogs. She is definitely no couch potato and would do best in an active household with another young energetic dog to play with. She would love to have a companion, but not a requirement!
Tilly is housebroken and sleeps all night on her bed. She is also a well mannered girl who loves to be the center of attention . She would love to be around children who will give her the attention that she craves. She is a barely over a year old and still has adolescent tendencies and will benefit from a patient family who can establish structure and continue her training. If you're looking for endless joy and laughter in your life …adopt Tilly today!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
