Just Getting a Little Sunbathing In
Franzi and Rommel soaking up some rays on the back deck on a very hot, late summer day. Don't forget the sunscreen doxies!

Hercules loves nothing more than getting the cat's leftover food. Once he's cleaned the plate, he shreds it into tiny pieces and leaves it for me to clean up.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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
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.
The one advantage to puppies over human babies is that after 15 minutes of super-activity, instead of crying, puppies just sort of fall over and sleep. Hard.
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?
