Dachshunds | 3 Doxies

June 20, 2008: Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day. But when you have three Dachshunds, which one do you take? Both Chloe and Odie have been to the office before and it proved quite embarrassing.
The first time Chloe when to work, she peed on the carpet on top where another Take Your [...]

Today we’re taking a walking down to Krispy Kreme to Celebrate National Donut Day to get four free donuts; one for Chloe, Odie, Molly and of course a donut for me.
Not that I let them eat the whole donut, but my Dachshunds sure have a taste for the the warm glazed donuts just out [...]

Spending Saturday night in a Thousand Oaks Animal Hospital is something everyone should avoid. Not that we had much choice, but what could we do? Our Vet closes shop on Saturday around 1 PM and it’s well past that into the evening.
His recorded message, said “If this is truly a pet emergency, please [...]

Dachshunds are escape artists! When Molly was a puppy, she would always escape her pen during the day to greet us at the door. We always put the blame on our son for letting the puppy run around the house when she was not quite potty trained.

I often wonder what my Dachshunds do all day at home when we’re off at work or shopping. But it seems to me that Seattle dog portrait artist Nancy Schutt has inside information on what Chloe, Odie and Molly are doing when we’re away.
I received a very clever email from Nancy asking if I [...]

I saw the funniest Dachshund ad today and I just had to share it with you. Not that I’m really trying to promote cafepress.com, but I the Three Doxies get paid if you buy something there. So much for disclaimer, and I would write about the ad anyway since it’s too cute, funny [...]

Yesterday I was at the Thousand Oaks Post Office to pick up my mail and a poster with a Dachshund, along with several other dogs, caught my eye. I picked up my mail and came back to read that next week (starting May 18th) is National Dog Bite Awareness Week.
It’s was strange that a picture [...]

I really need to get a video recorder with better resolution for you to appreciate how funny these Dachshunds are when we’re playing ball. I’ll toss the ball for Chloe and Odie will get to the ball first since he’s the fastest. Next Molly runs up to him and grabs a hold of [...]

Yesterday was time to give the Three Dachshunds a bath. We used to send them out to the groomer at PetSmart, but since Odie ruptured his disk, I’ve been giving them baths.
Since I’m a perpetual clogged-up-sinus guy, it usually starts with my wife Ann saying “Molly stinks!” Even then I push it out [...]
