Meet Tilly: The Tall, Tender Husky with a Ready H-E-A-R-T
When we first met her parents, Pedro and Zoe, they were on the euthanasia list—along with two of their puppies. The whole little family was in danger. As we scrambled to rescue them, the shelter adopted out the puppies. But fate had other plans: just as Pedro and Zoe were being loaded up for their freedom ride, their daughter was being returned to the shelter.
We couldn’t leave her behind.
Tilly has only known the backyard breeder and shelter system. She arrived at our NC sanctuary unsure of humans, unsure of safety, unsure of herself. But with the help of her pack and a patient foster mom, she’s learning to trust. She now approaches for gentle pets and eagerly accepts treats—small victories that feel monumental.
Tilly is a tall, lanky girl like her dad Pedro, and we estimate she’ll grow to around 70 lbs. She’ll likely always be a bit shy, so she’s looking for a calm, predictable home with confident, patient, playful dogs who can show her the ropes. She LOVES to play with other dogs. A securely fenced backyard would be ideal, giving her space to explore at her own pace. She may be timid with strangers at first, but once she feels safe, her quiet sweetness shines through.
Tilly’s story is one of resilience, and she’s ready for the next chapter—with a family who sees her not just for where she’s been, but for the gentle soul she’s becoming.
Tilly is 7 months old now. She is spayed, current on her vaccines, heartworm negative, dewormed and microchipped. She's located in NC but can be transported to a home in the eastern US for an approved adopter.
~~Husky Education And Rescue Team is a foster based rescue. Our dogs are in our foster homes all up and down the east coast. We do not have a facility in which you can visit. We find this a huge benefit because we learn our dogs and are able to educate our adopters on what it’s like to have them live in your home. Part of our process, once pre-approved, is to speak with the foster for the dog you’re interested in. If you’re still interested in adopting from our rescue the first step is to complete our adoption application online at www.huskyrescueteam.org/apply
