Hi, I'm Rick Caran and this blog is about 'Jilli Dog', my incredible 5-lb Yorkie.
We want to share what we have been doing with our many friends and fans from around the world.
Perhaps you saw Jilli on TV, at a performances, or maybe you have read about her. Maybe you saw her internet video hit-- "DOG PLAYS POKER". We continue to add new videos to YouTube of our appearances and have also added a training video to our website. More to come!
Besides the Dog Tricks shows, Trade Shows, Corporate Events, Educational, Modeling and Acting work Jilli does, she is a Certified Therapy Dog, sometimes creating 'Small Miracles' for people in need of spirit lifting and 'Pet Therapy'...
We hope to hear from you with any questions, info or stories, or just a nice "HI" would be cool... We have done this type of communique for years now, but on a one-to-one basis, and we're excited to have an open forum on this blog! Take care, and best regards, Rick Caran and 'Jilli Dog'...

Hey there Jilli and Rick. This is Mandy and Bits. We met this weekend at the W Hotel event. Just wanted to say the video is great. We checked it out when we got home since we missed Jilli play poker in person. Hope to see you again next time you are in SF.
Hi Jilli, I'm Cosa Linda, a 7 pound Yorkie boy. My name is Spanish, because my mom, who is from Colombia, named me. She thinks I am a pretty thing, so that is what I am named in Spanish

Hello friends, Jilli fan's, or just folks dropping by our blog! I'm hoping to learn how to use this and keep up with it! I'd like to thank those of you who left these very nice postings. I am going to have a Q and A section, especially from many who have written to my email!
New Video's www.JilliDog.com
Here's some of the things that we've been up to:
*Look for Jilli in the current Target Stores TV Commercial! It features her and a beautiful Weimeraner.
*I am now on the 'cast' of 'International Yorky Club Magazine' I do a column titled "Five Minutes a Day with Jilli Dog and Rick Caran"
*'Spidey Chihuahua', Jilli's bro, breaks into show biz! Yes! We just taped a commercial for American Airlines, and Spidey was a principal dog opposite James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano!). He had to sit pretty in a lady's bag, then growl and snarl at James in a cab! He did great! James was very nice, sometimes ate with the whole crew and cast... There seemed like 100 people in the taping, incl extras, crew and principals! Great fun!
*See Spidey Play Defence to Jilli's basketball! Very funny! www.JilliDog.com
* Jilli and I just performed at the walk-a-thon for the Little Shelter in Huntington NY. Nice folk, nice audience, great cause...
* My Friend Kyra Sundance just wrote a book '101 Dog Tricks' by Kyra Sundance and Chalcy! It's super, easy to follow and lots of pictures! www.Kyra.com
*My friend Ken, from Singapore has a really nice blog, and I will have a 'friends links' soon, but in the meantime, give his blog a visit! He is a great guy, I know him through my Silk Floral Business, and a strong friend of dogs! www.dog-bichonfrise.blogspot.com
Well, I just wanted to get going here on the blog, and in the near future, I'm going to be posting Training tips, Jilli Video's, events and about town with Jilli Dog stories! I am working on a Jilli Dog Tour in Spain, in the fall. If you are from the area, and want to have your group or business, or even private party part of our intinerary, let me know!!! The same goes for the states and other European countries that have dog friendly regs concerning entering. In most places, an at home quarentine with a microchipped dog is the practice! Talk soon, and give us a holler! best regards, Rick and Jilli Dog
Hello All! We have been so busy and havin a great time! Thanks so much for your wonderful emails and nice comments! I am really not so blog savvy yet, but will try to get better and keep a regular dialogue going. If you want to make direct contact and get a faster reply, please post your comments here at the blog, and 'also' send it to rickcaran@hotmail.com!
And to Fran and Carly! We LOVE our fans from the UK, and would love to visit there someday (the home of the Yorkie Breed!. We are going to Scandinavia next year, because we were invited to perform at an international dog event in Stockholm, and we hope to build a tour there also. If you have any UK ideas for this year, (corporate luncheons, events, store openings or events etc), let us know!!!
I will post some current events soon, I promise. Thanks to all of Jilli's great friends and fans!
aww! shes spp cute! i have a yorkie too. hes 4 years old but he cant do tricks like JILLI. can u teach him? his name is MICKIE go on youtube vahofficial and check it out please.
My name is Jill. I am a yorkie owner of a 7 lbs. yorkie named Pasta who is 10 months old. I was wondering how young you were when you started your tricks and how old you are now. You are the smartest yorkie I have ever seen which means you must have a great owner who is very smart too! Best of luck and success in your career! Jill & Pasta
To Jilli and Rick, Loved meeting you on Saturday while you were checking for bargains in Huntington Bay. I had fun doing tricks with you in my parents garage. Funny thing is...when I got home I realized that I had received an email a few days ago from a friend telling me to check out a website called http://www.idodogtricks.com/. When I clicked on it, it was you doing your tricks by command. That was a coincidence! Again, it was great to meet the two of you. Keep on having fun!
hi the Jilly dog crew.Its Kelly from the auto fest. I just wanted to say that yesterday was great. I loved helping u guys out. If you ever need any more help then call me. I hope I see u soon
