“#Fur the clout \u2014 these spoiled NYC dogs are Insta famous<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

These four-legged New Yorkers may drool uncontrollably, but they rule their digs thanks to Instagram stardom.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s doubly true for Charlie, the 8-year-old bichon poodle, and his roommate, Sawyer, a 5-year-old goldendoodle.<\/p>\n

They live in an apartment on the Upper East Side with their human, 32-year-old Paige Chernick.<\/p>\n

The two doodle rescues\u2019 enormous internet presence \u2014 they share 136,000 followers on the Instagram account @puppynamedcharlie<\/a> \u2014 has afforded them posh pooch perks.<\/p>\n

They love to lounge on their La-Z-Boy-brand dog couch and beds and admire their portraits, which hang on the walls around the apartment.<\/p>\n

When they\u2019re done playing in the snow, they might dry off in their very own namesake bathrobes and then head to their own, dedicated closet \u2014 filled with their many jackets, sweaters and accessories for a wardrobe change. Yes, they have more closet space than most human New Yorkers.<\/p>\n

Charlie and Sawyer also enjoy coveted urban outdoor space, a private balcony, \u201cwhich in the warmer months is a nice luxury for them to have because they can sit outside on the couch,\u201d said Chernick.<\/p>\n

There are an estimated 600,000 dogs living in New York City, but how many get to pick out the wall art?<\/p>\n

New York\u2019s most famous pooches, who rack in lucrative sponsorship deals for their owners, give new meaning to the word fur-niture. They have taken over their humans\u2019 apartments, owning the beds and couches, claiming the closets and dressers for their extensive canine costumes and accoutrement.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an ethos summed up in a recent post of Charlie cuddling a Jonathan Adler throw pillow emblazoned with the words \u201cBOSS LADY.\u201d The caption: \u201cAct like a lady, think like a boss!\u201d<\/p>\n

Sprout, a 5-year-old Brussels griffon, is also breaking the \u2018Gram, with 177,000 fans subscribed to his blue checkmark account @brussels.sprout<\/a>. He owns a luxury studio apartment in Chelsea, with his human, Sigrid Neilson, a 39-year-old lawyer.<\/p>\n

Their home is \u201ca homage to his love of napp<\/a>ing,\u201d said Neilson of Sprout\u2019s salubrious shelter, which includes four beds and a crate, plush blankets and a teepee that he loves to slumber in. Of course, he has also claimed his human\u2019s bed and couch as his own.<\/p>\n

When he isn\u2019t living it up in his doggie digs, Sprout\u2019s favorite pastime is going for walks and visiting stores in the neighborhood, where he happily accepts treats from the friendly shopkeepers.<\/p>\n

Maxine, a 5-year-old corgi, has also gone to doggy heaven. The furry Manhattan transplant now enjoys borough living in a duplex in Bed-Stuy outfitted with animal- themed art and d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n

Her humans, Bryan Reisberg, 32, and Alex Garyn, 31, who work as a creative director and director of planning for a wellness brand, respectively, run her Instagram account @madmax_fluffyroad<\/a> and have amassed 750,000 followers.<\/p>\n

Maxine spends most of her daylight hours downstairs (the family\u2019s black-and-white mustachioed cat, Geoff, sleeps upstairs) and loves running around on the terrace just off the master bedroom. But the apartment\u2019s office is where the magic is made.<\/p>\n

Maxine has a favorite dog bed there, as well as boxes of costumes and toys and Maxine-related merchandise that her loyal audience eagerly consume. Camera and video equipment are set up to capture every second of Maxine\u2019s canine moxie.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, the office is host to Maxine-inspired posters and shelves with children\u2019s books that serve as research for a kid\u2019s book about Maxine that\u2019s in the works.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m pretty sure Maxine knows she\u2019s famous,\u201d Reisberg said. \u201cI choose to believe that\u2019s where her attitude comes from. She\u2019s a diva.\u201d<\/p>\n

Naturally, it would be presumptuous to think that New York\u2019s most precious pooches dare commit a pedestrian act like lifting a leg on a hydrant to relieve themselves.<\/p>\n

Tinkerbelle, a 9-year-old Papatese \u2014 who lives in Midtown with her human, Sam Carrell, an actor and dancer, and her new little sister, Belle \u2014 has a private bathroom potty pad with her own space to do business.<\/p>\n

Home life is especially cushy for the this four-legged fairy, with nothing to do but flaunt her \u201cfive pounds of fierce, fabulous fluff\u201d with 469,000 Instagram followers via @tinkerbellethedog<\/a> \u2014 registered trademark.<\/p>\n

Tinkerbelle has a bed in every room, two sets of doggie stairs to make those climbs up onto the human bed easier and, perhaps most fabulously, a pink couch in the living room where she loves hanging out and posing for pictures. The glam dog also boasts her own armoire filled to the brim with clothes and accessories.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels amazing to have a famous dog,\u201d said Carrell. \u201cThere are daily positive adventures and surprises.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of note, Tinkerbelle was recently honored with an official proclamation by the State of New York for her accomplishments as a famous doggie actor. She is also a New York Emmy Awards nominee for her work in the PBS show \u201cDog People.\u201d Her human will likely have to clear more shelf space for her growing accolades.<\/p>\n

While it may be glitz and glamour for the famous doggie dwellers, their humans work tirelessly to ensure their canines and the homes they live in are seen in the right light.
\u201cIt\u2019s a lot of fun having a famous dog,\u201d said Reisberg. \u201cBut my wife and I don\u2019t take it lightly. We feel a strong sense of responsibility to that audience. We know Maxine is a source of happiness and laughter for a lot of people, and we\u2019re extremely proud to be a small part of other people\u2019s lives in that way,\u201d\n <\/div>\n
