Franzi going after a gopher

They said “get a Dachshund, they’re small!” They didn’t mention they come with the power of a Caterpillar 305 Excavator and the determination of a Roman gladiator. 🚜💨

One tiny gopher makes a 1-inch hole, and suddenly my backyard looks like a scene from Holes. Irrigation line? Collateral damage. National power grid? Next on the list if that gopher doesn’t surrender.

Franzi the Dachshund isn’t just a dog, it’s a lifestyle… and currently, that lifestyle involves me buying 40lbs of topsoil and a new sprinkler head. 🙄🚩
