This is a picture of my granddog and her brother as babies

They're both wirehaired miniature dachshunds.

She is tan and he is wild boar colour.

He was a lot smaller than she was as you can see.

Here's a link to a nice site of a Dachshund Breeder

Did you know that in Canada, to be considered a purebred with the CKC, smooth coated dachies must be bred with smooth coated, wires with wires and long haired with long haired? Apparently, in the States you can breed smooths with wires etc. and still be considered pedigree. That's what my daughter's breeder told us anyways.

Dachshunds make great pets. They are stubborn though and they're hard to house train. Plus they chew (shoes, wires, underwear, bathing suits) so don't leave them around. They're hounds so have a keen sense of smell and interest in smelly things! And they bark sometimes or (cluck like a chicken in Daisy's case) They make up for all their troubles with their cuteness, but be warned!

Next time posts on standard poodles, I promise.

And also my kitty pics!
