What is a tippy? (pronunciation: ti - pee)

or should I say, tippies? Tippies (plural) to me and my family are how we describe our dog, Artie's, feet/paw. As a herding breed she is light on her feet as she 'tippies' in, out and about. Watching the family, guarding points of entry/exit, and to her stop on the couch.

This is a term of endearment. In this case, it may be applied to an adorable person who is light on their feet (applied subjectively). This should not be confused with 'tip'-toe' as tippying (tippied in the past tense) is NOT to avert attention or hide ones presence, but to scutter about with intent and ones own adorable purpose.
Tippy - a singular paw
Tippies - multiple paws
Tippied - scuttered into the room
Tippying - scuttering about
A rhyme: As she tippied in and tippied out. I turned to her and asked; Artie? Why are you tippying about?

Tippy Toppy 

A down-to-earth high maintenance millennial who teeter-totters between their indecisiveness on almost all aspects of daily life. Appointments by Tippy Toppy's often lead to cancellations or rescheduling, which peeves friends, family members, and Tinder dates.
Alex scheduled a dinner with her family on the same day she had a date. She ended up being a Tippy Toppy and bailed on both to go grab an IPA instead.
