/Sounds like "tee" (as in "tea") + "RAHR" (as in "rapper") + "LOHS" (as in "loan") + "PEH" (as in "pet") + "rrohs"/

Meaning

To shamelessly and persistently flirt with someone, trying to win them over with zero subtlety. In Mexico, tirar los perros is direct, shameless hitting on someone.

Examples

He's been tirando los perros at the new neighbor girl every day.

Don't tirar los perros at my sister, show some respect.

An intensifier in Mexico that means something is extreme, whether extremely good or extremely bad. Context and tone decide which way it goes. Think of it as the Mexican equivalent of saying something is "insane" or "crazy good/bad."
