You Know You Want To Get A Puppy!

Another lag in blogging...but I have a legit excuse this time! Our precious world dominating little angel/fascist/miniature dachshund finally had her babies. It was quite an event. There was a toss up on the number of puppies she was going to have, but we settled at a nice round 4. Two boys, two girls.



They have such hilarious personalities. One of the boys is the laziest animal I've ever seen. He falls asleep while nursing! But don't worry...he's one of the fattest of the bunch.

The other boy is the most adventurous little spirit. He is into everything. He was the first to climb out of the whelping box. And when we go outside for a little fresh air, he's the first off the blanket to waddle around in the grass.

One of the girls is Schnappi reincarnate. She is always pulling on the sheets with her little teeth, and squashing her brothers, and trying to jump her mother. And she talks. And thinks. And tries to take over the world from the whelping box.

And the last is our little baby. She is the "runt" of the litter. And no, we're not keeping her. But boy would I love to. She is just a little more than half the size of her brothers--even smaller than her sister. But oh my gosh, her face is that of a heartbreaker's! She definitely got her mom's "I'm precious, go ahead and tell me" look.

One of the little boys is already spoken for! They're such a nice couple, I feel so great about it. Of course Schnappi had to have them right before the holidays. So here's my sleazy request--if you or anyone you know is looking for a dachshund, PLEASE email me! rachelrenfro (at) gmail (dot) com



We've got to sell them before Thanksgiving. So here's the rundown. They're CKC registered, as are their parents & grandparents. The boy not spoken for is long-haired, the girls are short-haired. They have an excellent pedigree. They come with their collars & a whole bag of Science Diet puppy food. They'll be wormed, have first shots, and have health guaranteed by our vet. They're ready for adoption on 11/8/2008. If that weren't fantastic enough, they're already being socialized with little children, and they are great! Their mother and father both are excellent with kids, too. They're $475 each.

So email me if anyone you know is interested. We're between Atlanta & Athens, GA, so if you're anywhere in the area, or are willing to travel to visit them, let me know!



Pass it on to anyone who may be interested.
