The Tillman Bunch

Being a famous bulldog like me, I try not to let the fame get to my head. I have lots of famous people petting me on set and in my travels. I don't usually get star struck...after all I've skated at the White House, Red Carpets in Hollywood, Major League Baseball stadiums nationwide.

One person who got me drooling in excitement was when I skated the driveway of Florence Henderson, known for being everyone's mom Mrs Carol Brady on TV's Brady Bunch show. Florence makes an appearance in today's episode of Who Let the Dogs Out on Hallmark Channel. I hope you get to see it today. Want to see a preview clip of today's first episode? Well here ya go:

Who Let the Dogs Out, Season II Premieres on Hallmark Chanel Feb 1st

Lucca the military working dog being honored at SkyBall

Remember Lucca, the hero dog from the Rose Parade? You can see her THIS FRIDAY February 1st on the season premiere of Who Let the Dogs Out on Hallmark Channel.
 
The premiere episode is an all new hour of TV honoring Military Working Dogs. You'll get to go behind the scenes of the Rose Parade, get to meet Lucca and her history as a military working dog in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is a very moving episode, so be sure to tune in.
This episode also includes the story of my Boot Camp training and how I became an honorary Marine. I traveled to Dallas for my induction, where I received my uniform "stripes".  The announcer teased me about being a little fat...FAT? Those rolls are muscles around my neck, or at least that is what I like to say.

I also got to attend SkyBall in Dallas, Texas, an event that honors all of our nation's Military service members, Veterans, and their families, including Lucca! I hope you are as excited as I am about the premiere episode of Who Let the Dogs Out. Special thanks to my sponsors at Petco who are great to work with on this show! Be sure to stop by your local Petco store and pick up some of my Tillman's Treats, or better yet, the new Natural Balance Jerky Bars with special limited edition Monument packaging. Proceeds of those go to help fund the national monument to Military Working Dogs.

Here Comes Another Rose Parade!

I'm proud to be appearing on the 2013 Natural Balance Rose Parade Float on January 1st. I won't be performing on the float, but I will be there in my capacity as an honorary Marine to help honor and raise awareness to the incredible canine heroes of Military Working Dogs. The Los Angeles Times just featured a photo of one very special military working dog named Lucca. Lucca lost her leg while on morning patrol in Afghanistan, is currently enjoying her retirement in Finland. She will be riding our "Canines with Courage" Rose Parade float.

Here's a photo of me with Lucca on the float while it was still being decorated. I hope you will be able to watch the Rose Parade on TV January 1st. 

Look for the Natural Balance float to see me...Lucca and the floral replica of the new National Monument to Military Working Dogs. The cost of the monument is entirely from private donations, and three organizations: Natural Balance Pet Foods, Petco, and Maddie's Fund. You can also help support the monument by purchasing special packages of Natural Balance Jerky at any Petco store nationwide. 

The proceeds go directly to fund this incredible monument. So be sure to watch the parade on January 1st, you'll get to see a floral replica of the Monument. Then go out to your local Petco and pick up a bag of these Jerky treats to help us raise money to pay for it.

Thanks and a great big WOOF to you!

#Tillman Tuesday Giveaway Winner!

I got a lot of cool answers to this week's #Tillman Tuesday question: How did you get yer Name??

Some of you were named after TV, movie or book characters, athletes, rock bands, songs, actors, previous loved pets, human relatives, friends, an ex-boyfriend or names people wanted to name their kids! One was named after a god and one after a goddess! Other names came from a roller coasters, a constellation and a comet. Some of you had your names already when you were adopted. One had been abused and had a bad name so they gave her a new one - Princess! 

Zoe @sherryfawkes
named after actress Zoe Saldana

Cinny @teamcockapoo
named after her cinnamon color

A lot of you got yer names cuz of how you act, look, or things you do - Monkey, Cocoa, Squeak, Gabby. One kitty just 'looks' like a Leonard. BOL! Purl had been a stray in the cold who needed a sweater, Silver's mom sold a silver necklace to pay adoption fees for her and her sister. Where you were found, favorite foods.. Some have Hawaiian or French names, and Shayna is Yiddish for 'pretty.' Newman's mom said he was the 'new man' of the house - and it stuck! Cooper is named after his dad's expensive tires, Pepper was named after a dream. Daffodil got her name cause her mom said she'd blossom in her new home. Lily's mom just liked the name.

I really liked learning about all of your names!

I used Random.org to draw the winner of the $50 Petco gift card, courtesy of my super awesome sponsor, Natural Balance Pet Foods - and the winner is... LEGEND! Yaaaayyy!!!! 

Legend is a big male American pit bull terrier who's changed a lot of peoples' minds about how pit bulls really are. His owner wanted a name that was different and that people wouldn't forget so he was named Legend. He *wasn't* named after the movie, "I Am Legend!" He was born before that movie came out. BOL!

I don't know how long Legend's been around the Internet, but he's very new to Twitter, so why don't you all follow him and make friends! @PittiePupLegend
