My story

Matilda (aka Tilly) is looking for her forever home! Just a couple weeks after Tilly was brought in from the shelter, her foster noticed a lump on her head. She was quickly brought to the vet to have the lump removed and biopsied and was diagnosed with a Mast Cell Tumor. After two surgeries to remove the tumor, we got the amazing news that the entire tumor was able to be removed and that **Tilly is officially cancer free** and has a great long term prognosis! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Tilly is 6-years-young and is a total Aries! She is an exuberant and confident pup with plenty of energy and life left to share with the lucky people who get to call her theirs. This girl is a big fan of long walks and even longer cuddles. A lover at heart, she'll win you over with her playful personality and her loyalty. She's a BIG fan of tennis balls and would love to play fetch with her forever family. She loves spending time with my 10 year old son and would do great in a home with kids. After surviving cancer, she's about to have the best years of her life and deserves a home to call her own. She's all that you could ask for in a companion and she knows it! —------------- Wiggles Way Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.
