Miss Tillie - 7 weeks
Wasn't I just darling?
I’m Miss Tillie, and it’s definitely all about me! This is my web site. I’m the lead dog in this house. My staff was acquired after they searched for the perfect dog, and they found me!
My maid has terrible allergies from animals. Although cats are deadly for her, she has really bad allergies to most dogs, too. So, she looked and looked for a dog that was small, beautiful, intelligent, and NON-ALLERGENIC. Did I mention that SHE FOUND ME? I’m a Maltepoo. I do not shed, and I’m very eager to please. My maid does not like messes, so the not shedding thing really worked for her! We love to kiss each other. I lick at her, and she licks at me.
My butler didn’t really like dogs and thought my maid was crazy when she decided to work for me. He’s talks pretty loud, but he likes to sleep on the couch while he’s watching television at night. When I first came to live in my new house, I sat on the couch with him every night. I would help him relax, so we would sleep together for a while. Then, I would go to my bed where I sleep every night. That worked so well that we still do that every night! He loves this dog!
In the summer, I do water aerobics! My maid turns on the sprinkler, and I run and jump and chase the water. I try to drink right out of the sprinkler and sometimes I cough when I get too much water. It’s really fun! I can sit, dance, wait, and stay. My staff gives me wonderful treats when I do these things.
My maid and
I love to play fetch!
That's my butler and me. I like to
sleep on my back!
Maxxy - 15 weeks old
Maximus is his real name!
About two months after I came to my new home, my staff brought another puppy to live in my house. Maxxy is a boy, and he’s really annoying sometimes. When he first came to our house, he was really scared of people, so my maid and butler held him a whole lot and talked to him, too. They think that someone probably treated him mean before he came to live with us or that he wasn’t around humans very much. Now, it’s his home, too. Maxxy barks a lot and chases airplanes and birds in the back yard. His ears perk up when he hears the airplane far away, and he watches the sky until he can see it. Then, he runs across the yard barking. I bet he thinks he’s chasing the airplane away. If my maid or butler comes in the back yard, he runs around the back yard fence barking. I guess he’s trying to protect everybody, so he’s not all bad… Maxxy is pretty amazing when he jumps. He can jump really, really high and can jump from a standing position straight up onto the patio dining table. It’s a good thing he hasn’t figured out he can jump over the doggie gate. My staff would be pretty upset over that. Sometimes we wrestle when I’m in the mood.
Every morning, Maxxy goes to my staff’s bathroom picture window and says “good morning.” He can hear them, and they tell him “good morning”, too. At night, Maxxy likes to sit on the couch with our maid until she goes to bed, which can be really late. I like to go to bed about 10:00, so when I go to sleep on the couch, my maid asks me if I’m ready to go to bed. I jump off of the couch and go to my kennel, but not Maxxy. He likes to lick her feet and hands, too. Maxxy can roll over for treats, and loves to hang out with our butler! He loves to ride in the truck and do errands with him. When he’s in the house with our maid, he likes to sit at her feet and go everywhere she goes. Actually, he’s pretty cute. And, Maxxy’s best talent is his singing. He can really sing when our staff asks him to. And, he will be the daddy of my tots! Our babies will likely grow 10–12 lbs. Maxxy is about 11 lbs, and I’m about 12 lbs now.
Miss Prissy - 8 weeks old
She was really tiny!
About a year after Maxxy came, Prissy came to live with us. She’s really small, and she looks a little bit like me except she has more apricot in her hair and is smaller. When I think about it, I had apricot ears when I was a baby, so she may be white some day, too. Our staff hasn’t had as much time to train her, so she’s a little stinker sometimes. They tell their friends “she’s learning”. But, I think she’s just a brat! Maxxy and I have to keep her in line because they didn’t have as much time to spend with her. When she disobeys the staff, we growl at her and jump on her. Disobedience is not acceptable behavior in our house. Prissy likes to play a lot, and she likes to wrestle and run. She grabs our legs, our whiskers, and our ears. I’ve watched Maxxy drag her around the yard attached to his ear. I don’t put up with that stuff, though. I mostly ignore her, but I growl at her and jump on her when she tries that stuff with me. One of Prissy’s favorite things is to crawl on her tummy in my staff’s bedroom while dragging a sock with her. She likes to steal clothes from the laundry pile and bounce around the bedroom with them. Underwear are her favorites! Some day, Miss Prissy may have some tots of her own. You will be able to find them on Tillie’s Tots Web Site. These tots may be a little smaller than my tots because Prissy probably won’t grow much bigger. She’s about 9 lbs right now, and she loves to snuggle with everyone. Prissy likes to get really close to my maid or my butler on the couch or sit in their laps and go to sleep. When she first came, she hugged them! It was pretty cute! She really loves Maxxy, and our maid always says, “Prissy is Maxxy’s dog!”
