Dachshunds | 3 Doxies

Clare just started a new blog that looks like an excellent source of information. Her blog is a resource “devoted to helping new and existing dog owners have a long and rewarding relationship with their dog.”
I really enjoyed her articles especially, “How to Puppy Proof Your Home.” I found that keeping our Daschunds in confined [...]

I was out walking Odie the other day and noticed a car driving around the dog pound (neighborhood, in case yo don’t listen to Snoop Dogg).
The elderly couple was obviously lost.  They pulled over, rolled down window and asked,

The Barkslope wrote an interesting blog post on how the Brits are naming their dogs after Celebrities. Two of our Dachshunds are named after a celebrity of some sort. Chloe is named after the prize winning Dachshund in the Disney film The Ugly Dachshund.
Odie really started out as “Brutus” the Great Dane [...]
