I knew we should have called him Rastas. After nearly a month spent at the beach Mr Tilley almost has dreadlocks, and that’s despite having had a hair cut only a few days after we arrived.
We give him a wipe over with micro fibre cloth each evening, which seems to get most of the sand off him, and we give him a bit of a brush before going to bed. Despite our best efforts, Paul’s first words to him most mornings are, “looks like another bad hair day, Tills”
No wonder his hair’s a mess, he gets great value out of the beach:
It was our own Busselton Beach, and the beaches of Broome that inspired our decision to re-join the world of dog ownership. Both beach areas get their fair share of dogs on them, and they all look so happy. Mr Tilley hasn’t proved to be the exception. He just loves the beach, and when not running on it, or splashing in it, he’ll happily sit with us just soaking it all in. He’s a happy little boy, but definitely is happiest, ‘on the beach’, despite the havoc it plays with his hair.
Life of Riley - on whatever 
He is just gorgeous. Such a happy soul! Great company for you.

He’s such a gentle little boy, but still has a puppies mischievousness. I can’t believe we left it so long between dogs – 25 years.

His unruly curls – I love them too even though they give him a ragamuffin look. He is a good dog for a 13 month old, but I look forward to him reaching the more stable magic 3. He still has a puppies spontinuity.

Our Mr Tilley looks like a Rastas ragamuffin, but Mr Tilley it is, even though we often refer to him as Rastas.
