Silly & Willie:  Hey you guys out there--we can see you!!  Wanna meet us?!?    We're the coolest and if you're cool too and don't live with kids younger than 10, we might let you take us home to live with you!!  

Silly: This pretty, petite girl over here is Willie, because Willie starts with "W" which stands for Whimsical, Wonderful, White, Waifish and Winsome!!

Willie:  And this is Silly, because Silly starts with "S" which stands for Sweet, Silver, Stupendous and Smooooochy!   And SILLY because he just is!

S&W:   We came from a shelter after a cruddy, dirty, nasty person dumped us and Billie after we'd lived with him our whole lives.   He took horrible care of us and we've been getting better from it ever since we got here.   We ain't telling, but our temporary human says she's pretty sure we came from something called a puppy mill--and that's BAAAD! 

Willie:   Yeah--it was bad all right!  Until about a month ago, "S" also stood for Sickly, Smelly, Scabby and SUPERSTINKY!

Silly:   Yeah, well you should talk!   Until about a month ago, "W" stood for Weak, Wheezy, Wobbly and Wounded! 

S&W (in unison):   HEY!!   YOU had a nearly naked, hairless butt which is just plain WEIRD/SCUZZY for a poodley dog! Oh that's SO MEAN!  OH WILLIE/SILLY!!!  How could I be so mean to YOU?!?   (followed by a prolonged session of enthusiastic and mutual full-face make-up smooching)

The Human:   Ahem.   Silly.  Willie?   Yoo hoooo . . .  Hey!  COME UP FOR SOME AIR WILLYA??   Quit being so rude to these nice people!!

S&W:   Sorry about that.  We get carried away.  You can tell that we have to stay together or we'll be really sad though.    Besides, we take pretty good care of each other and are never far apart on purpose.  And we don't eat much and both of us together don't even weigh what most regular dogs do and if we do say so ourselves, we're no trouble at all!   Plus we're pretty darn funny and we're cuter together then if we're apart!!  We'd love to come live with you, but only if we're together!!

Willie:  Silly's the more outgoing of the two of us, but I'm the Boss of him.  He's stronger than me and he figured out how to get up on the couch to get some face time with the human.  He never barks hardly ever (I do once in a while if he's not paying attention to me)   He's sooooo smart and handsome (even with his bare butt). . . don't you just LOVE him!!!

Silly:  Yeah, she is kind of bossy, but I don't mind.  Willie'd have figured out couch too, but her back legs were very weak from us living in a very tiny cage with no exercise for a long time.  She's getting stronger in this new place though and maybe someday she won't need any help getting up there--she's getting up the outside steps without help now so it won't be long I bet!!   And gosh, she's a pretty little thing and our hair--we're both getting it back now that we're eating enough healthy food.

S&W:   Otherwise, we pretty much do everything together:   Eat, sleep, go outside, watch T.V., explore, and play, and tell the other dogs to stay back if we're on the human's lap!!    We also sing a few minutes before bed with Billie when the lights go out or when the human crates us and leaves, but we stop pretty quick.   Oh and of course, we SMOOCH A LOT!

There've been lots of new things here to learn like how to wear a collar and how to go potty outside and not in the house, and pretty soon she's going to try and teach us how to WALK on leashes instead of flipping around like a trout out of water on them.   We learned that we're way to tiny to live with small children too--we'd break awful easy even if nobody meant to hurt us!

We've been through lots of changes, mostly with our health and we're coming along nicely and are downright bouncy these days!  The human says we've got lots of good, smoochy years ahead of us!   She says we're "fixed" now too.  We don't know what the heck she's talking about because we never thought we were broke in the first place!

Silly:   Willie honey, I think she's talking about when we went to that dog hospital and they did those operations on our fiddley bits, Remember?  You also had a REALLY big one because of your lumpy milk gland and that was why she waited so long to put us on the APB website because we had to wait and find out that you were going to be OK!!

Willie:  Oh that?   That was when we had all those teeth taken out of our heads too.   Boy the human thinks she's REALLY funny when she tells us we're lucky to have about 8 teeth left between us!   We're showing her though because we eat our dry food just fine!  And you were even chewing on that BIG dog's bone last night that was the same size as you!--you're SOO BRAVE!

Silly:   That big 90# Sissy excuse for a poodle?   He's afraid of ME!!  Wait, what's that other "broke" thing she calls us?? 

Willie:   You mean housebroke?  She says we're ALMOST housebroken but that she's got to keep an eye on us until we really get it.   I know I haven't had an accident in a while!

S&W:   We're crate trained though which means we won't go potty where we sleep and hang out when she's gone at all and that means that we'll get the hang of going outside inside the house pretty soon!
