A Hot Day for a Hot Dog
We took our pack to the Wiener Nationals Dachshund races to see how fast they could run against other doxies. There's a reason dachshunds aren't racing dogs.

Hank's an old Dachshund, so he prefers to sit places Hercules the puppy can't reach yet. Often you'll find him holding court on the bench out front by the pond
Hercules was enjoying a mid-afternoon nap in the sunroom, but I guess it got a little too warm on the dog bed. At least for the front half of him, not the back
Of course, dachshunds are wonderful dogs and make wonderful pets, but did you know they make great gardening accessories too? Here's Hank in a flower pot.
Dachshunds are famous for a lot of things, but retrieving abilities are not one of them. My red, Rommel, however, loved ball so much he could outrun a Labrador
It's a back-to-work Monday, but the dachshunds don't want me to go. They're using their "sad eyes" power to guilt me into staying home and entertaining them
Our dachshunds, Franzi and Rommel, helping my husband out at the hamburger drive-thru. As you can see, they're very helpful.
Hercules had his first Independence Day party. After a late night of barking at fireworks and running around like his tail was on fire, he needed the sleep.
Rommel always insisted on sitting with me while I sewed. I let him sit with me but, as a trade-off, he had to give me a lower back massage.
The fact that badgers rarely (if ever) burrow in flower pots doesn't stop our dachshund puppy, Hercules, from digging in search of them. You never know, right?
