I'm an eight year old long haired miniature dachshund. I love to be outdoors chasing something or getting into trouble.
I've got two girlfriends, Elanore the elephant and Shelly the snail, so I'm not lookin' for lovin' - but a nice belly scratch would be great.
I'm very smart - I know several tricks by both verbal command and hand signals. I also know several key phrases, such as: "get your ass off the couch," "get your ass in your own yard," "get your ass over here," and "you little ass!" Apparently there's something going on with my ass. Other phrases I hear often are: "drop it," "go to your room," and "do you want a butt-spank."
Like many doxies, I was so adorable that my mommy gave me way too many snackies. As a result, I gained a lot of weight and really looked liked a oversized weiner! My vet had enough and told mommy that I was "obese" and that it was imperative that I lose weight for my health and safety. Thanks to the Science Diet R/D dog food and a stringent measuring of my food, moderate exercise, and only baby carrots as snackies, I went from 18 pounds to 11.7 pounds in 8 months! I'm at a very healthy weight and look even that much cuter! Mommy is very careful now about giving me treats and carrots are still the best idea, but every now and then I get a cheezy wheezy - that's my favorite!
