Three Dachshunds!!!! Yes it’s true

Stud-boy Harley came to visit last night and he will be staying with Mikkey and Abbie for the next few days. Harley has never been around other dachshunds for more than a few hours at a time and he is quite enamoured with having playmates.  He is particularly excited about having a male buddy and [...]

You can take the dog out of the hunt but not the hunt out of the dog!

It was an average day. Nothing special happening for weasel - just the typical - staring at the computer screen for hours on end. With the back door open a bit to let the wild doxies enjoy the out of doors Abbie spiced up the day a bit by inviting a visitor in.
Glancing down to [...]

Mikkey on a seal hunt

Mikkey is quite disturbed. He caught site of a small seal figurine in Phoenix’s room and has decided that it is either A) a live animal that must be hunted or B) a chew toy of his that we’ve been callously hiding from him.  He tried to reach it to wrestle into submission when Phoenix was home so [...]

Wild Doxie Technical Trouble

Sorry folks - our site has been experiencing some technical issues.  WordPress is not allowing long posts to go through and Weasel hasn’t had time to sort out the issue.  Rest assured Mikkey and Abbie are still being delightful dachshunds - we just can’t update you right now.  The Doxie News is still running correctly [...]

Within days of his return Phoenixtail came down with a cold and [...]

No Weasel?

Guest editor PhoenixTail
Mikkey and Abbie were shocked when Weasel left the house Sunday, April 16-21. Both of them thought that Weasel was going to leave them forever! Mikkey tried to make Weasel stay, but Weasel is much bigger. Phoenixtail told both of them that Weasel would be back before you could say ‘Weasel’, that made [...]

Dachshunds are good for children

Guest editor Ferret Boy - son of Beautiful and Weasel
Dachshunds are a good choice for young children. They like to be petted and like to lick people, Just ask me, Ferret-Boy. “Yup they like to sleep and they like to lick people. They like to be petted to,” I hope we get more dachshunds!

“Fake Howls”

Guest editor PhoenixTail
Abbie, the third wonder weiner of this house, does a “Fake Howl” after every meal (I PhoenixTail call it that but others like Ferret-Boy might not). Abbie lifts her head and starts doing what the doxies before her did when they wanted to talk with other doxies far away, but Abbie doesn’t make [...]
