Welcome! I’m Maia, the owner of the two little terriers featured on this blog and across our social media platforms. We live in the Midwest and enjoy an active, dog-sport-filled lifestyle!
Meet Tilney
An 8-year-old terrier mix named after Henry Tilney from Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey, Tilney is my “novice A” dog in four different sports. He’s achieved high-level titles in scentwork and rally obedience, and is the reason I love terriers. He’s incredibly clever and motivated.

Meet Lottie
Lottie is the sweetest jack russell terrier out there, and hopefully my first of many! She is 4 years old and named after Charlotte O’Halloran, heroine of Sydney Owenson’s O’Donnel. Lottie introduced me to dog-powered sports and terrier trials, and also participates in rally, agility, and nosework.
