Wiener Dog Saturday
4/25/2005By: Dachshund Lover
Last Saturday, we decided that three doxies were too much to handle while my wife hosted a baby shower at our home. Molly was simple. Just leave her with our son for a few hours to watch. Chloe was easy. She just slept on our bed (actually she thinks it’s her bed). A little barking by both, but no trouble at the party.
Odie on the other hand, is difficult since he barks and scratches at the door. I decided to take him shopping for a few hours. Our first stop was PETsMART. We walk around the store for about one-half hour while he sniffed at every place another dog peed. He picked out a new purple 99-cent dog ball and we got a few treats for later in the day. It was very busy and everyone was looking and wanting to pet the cute Minature Dachshund.
Odie is not used to handling so he shies away from people. He almost got into a fight with a German Shepherd but they quickly resolved the issue with a little more sniffing. Odie was glad to leave PetSmart and we headed to his favorite sandwich shop: Quiznos.
I order a Ham and Swiss, Pepsi and a bottle of water for Odie then we drove to the lake at Westlake Village to enjoy our lunch. Sitting, in the car, I was admiring the lake while Odie was admiring the Ham and Swiss. He got a few tidbits and was satisfied. We still had about an hour before the party was over so we took a short nap in the car.
After a while, we drove home just in time when everyone was leaving. There were a few guests left and he was on his best behavior.

Doggy Delights from Honda
Travelling with unrestrained pets in the car can be dangerous, so Honda have created a concept car to make driving safer for both dogs and owners.
The car is called the “Wow†– officially standing for “Wonderful Openhearted Wagon†but als…
I just moved from Austin to Waco…do you live in Austin? While reading your message above, I immediately thought of how pet friendly Austin is, and that Waco is not quite there.
My mini, Wrigley, would love a day like that!
No, we live in Thousand Oaks a suburb of the Greater Los Angeles metropolitan. Thousand Oaks is very pet friendly and has a dog park where the small and big dogs can run around.
