Tilly (born 31 October 2008; died 29 January 2023), also known affectionately as Tilly Floss, was a Greyhound belonging to the Hamilton family, the former grand ducal, and presently presidential family of Australis. She was adopted by the family in 2010, when she was 18 months of age, through the organization Greyhounds As Pets. Tilly underwent the initial stages of training to become a racing Greyhound, however she was deemed too slow to race, and was instead put up for adoption – something which saved her life, as the vast majority of Greyhounds unfit to race are put to death.
