Hello from Tilly
Golden Retriever, 5 years old
My favourite thing about Tilly is...
She has to be the first to greet me, she adores fish treats, she and our newly adopted dog Zoe love mouthy games. When she arrived she went straight to Mum and climbed on her lap for a hug within 2 mins. She adores fusses and everyone who visits is asked to give them. She is no guard dog. She gets a Christmas stocking and birthday cake.
The biggest challenge with Tilly is...
Getting place the tiny Zoe dog. I have to rescue her.
The most surprising thing about owning a Golden Retriever is...
The sheer love of life and the shedding.
What I wish I’d known about Golden Retrievers is...
They are none stop eaters and can get obese.
Did you know?
Golden Retrievers are said to have extremely soft mouths, so soft in fact that they can carry a raw egg in their mouth without cracking the shell.
