Meet Tully! 🐶
For years, Tully lived in a pen in Romania alongside her best friend, waiting for the day someone would finally choose her after her stint in the kill shelter. When that chance came, it should have been the start of her happy ending - but heartbreak followed quickly, and she was given up in less than a week. Understandably overwhelmed, frightened, and confused by everything around her, Tully responded the only way she knew how: by asking for space with growls that simply meant, “Please leave me alone - I’m scared.”
Since then, Tully has spent several months in kennels, and in that time she has blossomed. Given patience, understanding, and consistency, she has learned how to decompress and trust. The dog emerging now is affectionate, funny, and full of love - once she knows she is safe. She will gently paw at you for attention, lean in close, and even attempt to climb onto your lap, blissfully unaware that at around 35kg, she is very much not lapdog-sized.
At approximately 6 years old, Tully is looking for an experienced, committed home that understands dogs who need time. She can be wary when meeting new people and situations, so several visits before adoption would be essential to help build trust and set her up for success. Ideally she would love to live in a female only home, she can feel more anxiety around men. She is also still learning how to walk on lead - so much of the world is still new to her - and she will need patient guidance as she continues discovering life outside kennel walls.
Tully has never been particularly fond of other dogs, so she would be happiest as the only pet in the home, where she can enjoy all the love and attention for herself. She will need a secure garden with good fencing and a quiet, traffic-free room or safe space indoors where she can retreat and decompress when she feels overwhelmed. Because of her size and strength, she is best suited to a confident, experienced owner familiar with large breeds, who won’t be discouraged by the anxiety-based growls she may initially display.
What Tully needs most is simple:
patience, understanding, and someone willing to look past her fear to see the loving dog underneath.
Give Tully time, and she will give you her heart. Could you be the person who finally shows Tully what home really means?
