Ol’ Hank in His Favorite Spot
Hank used to be the puppy of the pack, but at 14, he's now the old dog. Here he is in his favorite spot on the back of the couch. Groggy, but alert for food.
Playing Ball on a Different Scale
Dachshunds are awesome, but they can be easy targets for animals like coyotes unless you've got a pack mate that's a mastiff. Then the coyote needs to look out.
A Pack of Dachshund Puppies
An old photo when my pack were all still babies, sitting on the bed enjoying the late afternoon sunlight. Monkey somehow got the rawhide, which never happens.
Ground Squirrel Hunting as a Team
Franzi and Montgomery hunting together in a ground squirrel burrow. Franzi digs and flushes them from one end and Montgomery waits to grab them at the other.
Franzi Encounters a Gopher Snake
I heard Franzi's "hunting" bark coming from near the chicken coop. I found her preventing a gopher snake from getting in to eat the eggs. Good girl Franzi!
Hercules is Skeptical
I told Hercules the dog treat bag was empty, but, based on the look on his face, I can tell that he doesn't believe me.
Franzi is the Sun Queen
We got new cushions for the chaise lounges. Now, Her Most Serene Royal Chocolate Highness, Franzi the Sun Queen, is holding court on her new throne.
A Monday Wake Up Call for Monkey
Monkey was burrowed so far into the blankets that, had it not been for being short one dachshund at breakfast, he might have kept on dozing right up until noon
What Time is It?
According to my dachshund clock, it's a quarter to 12. If you ask the dachshunds though, it's always time to eat.
Monkey and the Penguin Blanket
Monkey loved the penguin blanket because none of the other Doxies in the pack ever wanted it. He'd drag it around and burrow into it knowing he'd be left alone.
