So, the first of its kind, I think…not a TiBB member Hotseat but a TiBB member pet Hotseat and the first sitter in that seat is Tilly, who is the dog pet of Cherie…she’s taken time out of her busy walking and playing and eating and sleeping and tail wagging schedule to brave the probing of any questions that you’ve always wanted to ask a dog…

[Ammi]

…do you like to have the same food each day, Tilly….?…

[Ammi]

…do you think that you’d make a great police dog/security dog…?…

[Ammi]

…would you call yourself a home protector…?…

[Ammi]

…what’s your favourite dog toy…?…

[Ammi]

…does mama Cherie give you sneaky treats that she possibly shouldn’t…?…

[Ammi]

…are you a city dog or a country dog, would you say…?..

[Ammi]

…favourite place to walk…?…

[Ammi]

…do you steal socks if you get the chance…?…

[Ammi]

…Cherie or Mr Cherie…/…who’s your favourite human…?……

[Ammi]

…do you love unwrapping gifts…?…

Yes more or less but my humans have discovered that it is best not to mix my food so I have wet food in the morning and dry in the evening, I have a very novel way of eating dry food I take a mouthful of kibble from my bowl then go and lie down on the mat in front of the fireplace and crunch it and then return and repeat, my humans think its very cute so who am I to deny them a daily performance

Yes of course, I would be brilliant at sniffing out bags of cocaine and I probably would get a medal and retire a heroine of the force

Oh yes I love to bark at delivery people and the postman, only from my bed though I never get up as I am sure my bark is enough to see them off

When my humans got me I have three toys but I dont have an interest really, my favourite thing to do is fix Mum or Dad with my most intense stare if they are eating until they give in, I dont whine I just watch intently.....this seems to do the trick, Mum got me a tennis ball but chasing balls is for lessors, my other favourite thing to do when out walking is to stare at other humans and go into stalking mode like the collie I am when I see another dog

I would say I am a bit of both I walk well in city but there are far too many more interesting things to sniff in the country

oh the woods for sure, love the shade and all the lovely places to sniff and sometimes Mum lets me off lead

Dad is worse than Mum and she tells him off, but Mum always gives me cheese, I am currently with a pet sitter as my brother couldn't look after me and they enquired if I liked healthy snacks like carrots and apple, I was aghast....luckily Mum put them straight...toast, cheese, chicken, ham, normal treats none of this healthy stuff

No I am a good girl Ammi, I am four now so have grown out off these childish ways

Originally Posted by Ammi

ooooo tough one I would have to say whoever is doling out the treats gets my full attention

[Ammi]

…have you ever wanted to bite the post person/delivery person etc…?…

Do you like cats?

[AnnieK]

Are you a social dog on your walks or too posh to mix with the riff raff?

[Ammi]

…do you ever bark in your sleep…?…

Do you ever bring Cherie back from the pub when she has had a few too many?

Oh no my bark is enough to let them know I mean business

Well when I was adopted I arrived with a bit of background info one of which was 'no to small furries' well I haven't quiet lived up to that tag as I will see cats on my walks and in the main I pretend not to have noticed them, although one time I did make a playful lunge at one just to keep Mum on her toes

Not really if I am around other dogs Mum keeps me on lead as she doesn't trust me not to kill a lessor, many dogs off lead have run up to me but after a cursory sniff I bark at them to back off

oh yes I have the cutest low growl followed by a little bark when I am dreaming about chasing rabbits

So far Mum has been very good, I love going to the pub by the river, lots of things to stare at and some humans pet me and tell me I am a lovely girl, and Dad gives me crisps
