TILLY TERRIER - 2 year old - Supposed to be not dog friendly, but managed to get lose at the vets and just cuddled into Boyd Rottie Fully vaxed, not neutered as she was in season when she was taken in
Tilly comes on Monday _________________ You can't train the terrier out of a terrier!
bless her, will look forward to following her story into her forever home. Cant wait for you walkers to take her out of her shell and show her off in all her JRT glory.
we all know about the rap staffies have but JRTs also have this strange reputation that those who know and love JRTs find perplexing.
I take great delight in people cuddling and stroking my girls and asking what they are .. .telling them they are JRTs ... having a shocked expression saying... but they are so well behaved (yeah right! when Ive got treats)....
but seriously... i soooo wish people would stop giving breeds and dogs labels and give them the chance to be the little individuals they are.
JRT are such fab little dogs so much character and so much courage. They are so friendly and chatty to doggies, sometimes they dont end up being the best of friends but thats OK - its good to have a doggie that wants to at least try, even if it doesn't work out all the time.
Dont ever mistake the typical JRT interchange with another dog for being non- dog friendly.... they just like to make their opinion known..
I collected Tilly today and she travelled with me, Woody and Errol back to Farnham kennels. She certainly had a lot to say
She is far more beautiful than the photograph suggests. I ran out of time to take any better ones but hope to be able to do so tomorrow. She is full of life and not afraid of any dog going
Quite the little terrier - can't wait to get to know her better

Could have kicked myself today - all ready to take photos only to discover the battery was flat
However, Tilly got a lot of attention from Sam and me today. I think she is definitely a play monster - when I changed her collar she pounced all over the old and threw it around. We dug out a squeaky tennis ball for her.
Sam took her out for a lovley long walk and said she was very good. She is very much the little terrier, spotting the squirrels and giving chase However, when Sam asked her to move on she did. She was out on the extending lead today.
Hopefully pictures tomorrow

Sensible little girlie... you can't be too careful with 'dead' collars... _________________ "Plus je vois les hommes, plus j'admire les chiens."

If she doesn't go in a bat of a white eyelash the world is mad! A very beautiful JRT and it sounds like she has character!! _________________ "Plus je vois les hommes, plus j'admire les chiens."

Tilly really is soooo cute And those eyelashes She's a little live wire, bursting with energy and she couldn't wait to get out and investigate. She even managed to chase after a ball at the same time as looking around for squirrels etc. It was so hard to take decent photos as she doesn't stop for long enough. I've got loads of pictures of just trees where I wasn't quick enough. She even wees on the go! Having said that she's a bundle of energy, she isn't difficult to manage and came back after I called her - when she'd finished what she was doing! She's a brilliant JRT and I'm sure she'll be snapped up in a jiffy. Tilly is definitely behind the tree in the first photo!
Tilly is very cute and has a cheeky look about her especially with one ear up and the other down! You can't see in the photos but she has little brown spots on her back under the long hair. We walked her with Woody today and she couldn't wait to say hi to him, which she did very nicely and then she was off on a mission! We had a very busy walk again, hardly pausing for breath. She did find time to check on Woody every now and then, but there was too much to see and do to spend more than a few seconds with him. We met some labradors when we got back to the kennels and she was fine with them too.
