About Us
Tilly, the Dog of the Day
Name: Tilly
Age: Five years old
Gender: Female Breed: Greyhound
Home: Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
 
   Our dog Tilly is five years old and is a retired racing greyhound. Tilly lives in Minneapolis, MN with her friends Jack, also a retired greyhound, and Ava, a basset hound who never had a job other than family pet. Along with Jack, Tilly is a great spokesdog for Greyhound Pets of America, MN chapter. She attends many "Meet & Greets" where she and Jack, along with their humans, Neil and Sylvia, tell people the joys of having a retired racing greyhound. If there is such a thing, Tilly is probably the perfect dog. Tilly is very friendly and loves to have people pet her. She has been responsible for many people deciding on adopting a retired racer. She and her greyhound "brother" Jack are happy with a six-block walk once a day and they like to chase each other around our back yard when it's not iced over like now.
