Jilly and Lupin

Jilly and Lupin are our dogs.

Jilly is blue merle Australian Shepherd that we rescued from the Delaware Humane Association in June 2009.  I peeked at her file and saw that she was traken from a puppy mill for abuse.  When we got her she was 5 months old. 




Jilly now weighs about 55lbs and is very healthy except for skin allergies that seem to be responding to daily fish oil pills.  She is very emergetic, loves to fetch and play tug of war.  She craves attention and food( we think she was starved at the puppymill since she was very underweight when we got her.





Lupin is a black and white bordercollie/sheltie? mix that we rescued from the Delaware County SPCA in September of 2010.  According to his file he was found wandering on the street with another border collie mix. 

At the shelter he was covered with fleas and desperately needed a bath. The SPCA took care of his fleas and neutered him.  He has a really sweet personality. 

Lupin loves to spin in circles when he walks.  He also wags his tail in a circle.  Running is his favorite thing.  Both dogs get along well and like to play together.  Jilly is the boss, and often has Lupin grooming her coat and ears.
