Tugger and Tilly

On the left is Horatio Tugsworth of Forsbrook, affectionally known as Tugger. Infamous in these parts for his dashing good looks and caring nature, he brings a smile to all in the office. He is always willing to give a helping paw to a situation and loves archipupping to ensure everyone is on track, he likes to believe he’s the one in charge.

Pictured right is Matilda of Glossip, she goes by many names to suit the many facets to her character including, but not limited to… ‘Tilly Tot,’ ‘Tilson,’ ‘Tootie bear’ and ‘Toot del a fruit’ if she’s feeling French. She is the long suffering little sister of Tugger but this mischievious little charmer can lift the spirits of any colleague even with her brother’s bottom in the way! To clarify, Tilly is always in charge.
