Tilly & Milo
Tilly is a 15 year old Border Collie x Alsatian x Whippet rescue dog. We took her on from Aldridge Dog Rescue and she came to us with a fair few issues.
She often soiled the house when left and would cower if you even patted her. She had issues with men and over the years has even bitten a dog warden because she felt so intimidated!
These days though, you would never know her past, she is the perfect family dog. She is very blind now with cataracts and doesn't hear like she used to, but after giving her Glucosamine for a year or two her hips are still holding out for her and she has a very slow happy life.
These are some pictures from just a few years ago:
About 9 years ago, my parents had a bright idea to buy another dog to keep Tilly company, which was kept a secret as a surprise for myself and my siblings.
Unfortunately, they purchased Milo, a Parson Russell Terrier, as a reduced price runt from travellers and he came to us no bigger than my rats and soaked in urine.
He soon turned into a handsome and full-of-himself typical terrier - which inevitably resulted in scraps between him and Tilly.
After a few scary fights, he was rehomed with my Nan and has been spoiled rotten!
Here are some pics of my mad little man:
And then my favourite pic of the nutty thing:
