HAPPY FALL, Y'ALL!


It's no secret to those who know me that fall is my favorite season!  The beautiful leaves, the nip in the air, pumpkins, no mosquitoes, no sweating, lower humidity!

Enjoy these fall doxies:

THE DACHSHUND MYSTIQUE: WHAT IS IT?


I have figured out the dachshund mystique: doxies are totally uninhibited, never caring how silly or comical they look!  They live life with abandon, enjoying the ride tremendously.  Here are a few photos that prove my point:

"Whatcha lookin' at??"


The sleep of pure innocence

"Why is everything upside down??"

Dachshunds . . .  you gotta love 'em, the sillies!  And if you feel the same way, check out THE DACHSHUND ESCAPADES books written by Sarge the doxie:

SKUNKED!

Poor granddawg Shadow got sprayed by a skunk yesterday, so he got a nice belly rub last night after he was all cleaned up.


There will be a full chapter detailing his encounter with the skunk in A DACHSHUND'S MERRY-GO-ROUND LIFE, Book 5 of THE DACHSHUND ESCAPADES, which is nearing completion!  Stay tuned for updates.

DOXIE GRANDDAWG SHADOW IS SLEEPY!


Our doxie granddawg Shadow is 14 1/2 years old, so he's entitled to taking naps whenever he wants, right?

In the photo below, it was about 11:30 last night, so of course he was a bit sleepy.  We all laughed at this photo, dubbing it his "bat impression."



He's my inspiration for THE DACHSHUND ESCAPADES, and those photos on the covers of the books are of him, our rock star doxie!

NEED HELP WITH VETERINARY BILLS?

Image result for ill dachshund imageThere are times, unfortunately, when our fur babies get injured or come down with a life-threatening illness, and the vet bills are more than we can handle.  Did you know that there are organizations out there who will help pet owners with the cost?
Here is a list of them, and I pray you never need to use them, but just in case:

Doxies are prone to back problems and injuries, and the cost for surgery can be prohibitive. Let's keep our doxies healthy by TRYING to keep them from jumping off couches and beds, and limit them to using the stairs.
