Koko Dogs

Name: Max
Called name: Mäxchen
Birthday: Not exactly known, sometime in October 2006
Race: Biewer Yorki
Weight: 2.8 Kilos

Favourite discipline: Pursue mistress
Favourite play: Clicker and each kind of sport…
Favourite toy: Small plushy animals
Body food: Chicken chest

Favourite collar: It´s equal… it must be only small and very light…

Favourite sleep place: I loved to sleep to my "brother "Rüpi, which was Koko Dog No. 1 (sadly he died last December). Now I cuddle with my mistress or sleep in one of my dog carrier.

Favourite outfit: Since I do not have typical dog skin, but a fine hair dress, how it is usual at my race, I freeze unfortunately permanently. I have thus many sweaters, jackets and sweater… Best fit me those chic cord sweaters of Kwigy-bo and sweater of Puppia, my mistress says.

Routine of the day: Since I had one "heavy youth "and humans not ever meant well with me I have an enormous fear to be left. Therefore I follow my mistress at every step and turn… all day long… Mistress works with me for the fact that it changes and I become a little more self-confident.

Friends: I am very compatible… and have a herd of friends in all sizes and weight classes.
Characteristics: I love Dog Carrier and use them gladly as sleep place or also as hiding place.
Which I do not like: Brushes… please do not brush…

"Apollo von der Steilküste"

Name: Apollo von der Steilküste
Nickname: at first "King Kong" - today "Rüpi"
Day of birth: 22/07/95
Breed: "Zwergrauhaardackel"

Favorite discipline: snuggle, snuggle, snuggle…
Favorite game: ready for every kind of fun
Favorite toy: stick and stuffed animals
Favorite food: cookies made of liver sausage, if need to be: bread with liver sausage

Favorite collar: Please ask my mum, I am a male dog and therefore not interested in fashion
Favorite place to sleep: I prefer sleeping in one of my "Dog Carrier" - my slogan is to stay mobile all the time
Favorite Outfit: Because of my age and an extensive surgery on my back, I am freezing immediately. I like all kinds of comfortable shirts and sweaters for staying warm and in action

Daily routine: If it was up to me, I would only play with my ball. Time to sleep is at night!

Friends: I am the senior of the "Koko Dogs" and have many friends. For matters of discretion, I do not give any names here.

Peculiarity: I have a great voice and like to bark sometimes - is not always that funny to my owners. If it rings at the door, there will be no stop for me - aditionally I am a watchdog after all.

Dislikes: rain and snow

Miscellaneous: I would like to thank my family at this point for not putting me down last year. My Dachshund-palsy was that far advanced that I could hardly move anymore. Every day there was pain for me and my family. Several vetenerians and animal hospitals already had given me up! But my mum found a newspaper article about a special method of operating Dachshund-palsy, so without further ado she took me to the airport and flew to Vienna. Prof. Punzet was very kind to me, the surgery lasted a few hours and I was allowed to go home immediately. (I am sorry but some advertising has to be allowed here!)

Right after the surgery I was feeling quite good, but the scar which was 25 cm long, looked awful and I did not have a skin for a long time. Because many of the humans execrate watching me and therefore badgered me, I was really glad that we have so many nice shirts for dogs which covered the scar and made me look presentable again. Furthermore I did not have to wear a huge bandage because the shirts protect me enough, even against the helping tongues of my four-legged friends who thought of licking me healthy.

I was physical fit after four weeks and do not have any problems with my back since then. Today I easily run up and down every stair, climb on every mountain and have a nice time. The newspaper article has saved my life and has made my life worth living again!

Name: Fair Lady von Arabian Studs
Nickname: Lotte

Favorite outfit: I do have a favorite winter jacket in a special camouflage-look and a sweater which I only wear when it is really cold outside, otherwise I would get a cold with my short skin

Daily routine: I am an early bird! During the day I follow my mum at every step she makes and experience

exciting things. Besides I am practicing new tactics every day to draw the other Koko Dogs out when we are playing…

Friends: I am getting on with everyone, I like to make new friends but I need time for that. In addition to the Koko Dogs there are my buddies Ami and Lola - they are working with us too and we all have a good time together.

Peculiarity: As already mentioned, I like to race…sometimes I forget that my mum is keeping me on a lead and I start racing…every now and then mum is pulled out of her shoes

Dislikes: I am too young to have any dislikes, I am exploring new exciting things every day.

Miscellaneous: I was bitten in my ear last month, it had to be operated. Now I am lacking a piece of it and I am at the doctor´s regularly…they are quite nice but it is getting on my nerves already.

"Lilly"

Name: Lilly
Nickname: unfortunately not known, because I was abandoned. My birthday was determined on 07/07/04, so it is possible for me to celebrate it!
Breed: something of everything: Dachshund-Pinscher-Chihuahua-mix
Weight: impolite question, but I do not have to hide: 4 kg

Favorite discipline: yap, snuggle and play
Favorite game: retrieving
Favorite toy: Balu, a teddy bear
Favorite food: cookies made of liver sausage and those made of ostrich
Favorite collar: The One Collar with pendant
Favorite place to sleep: "Camobettchen Battlefield"
Favorite outfit: Ed Hardy Tee LA

Daily routine: snuggling awake, go for a walk, sleeping, go for a walk, playing with my buddies, sleeping, go for a walk, eating and so on…

Friends: My best friend is Lotte. She makes herself extra tiny for playing with me. I like to snuggle a lot with Rüpi and I take extra sticks as gifts for him. I am joining Nokia when she retrieves her favorite ball. I try to be as fast as she is but Nokia runs like lightening, so that does not work very often.

Peculiarity: I can say something to any kind of topic - if someone ask me or not. But the "Anti-Bark-Collar" is there to control me once in a while. Since I am getting to my mum´s work, her principals and colleagues and she herself are happier and more relaxed now. When I am getting new clothes to wear, I always put them on and show them everyone who is present. I am always so excited and want everyone to see what I have new!

Dislikes: Standing on the table at the vetenerian´s. He is a nice guy indeed but you never know if it hurts anyhow! Getting up early and sleeping less!
