The Flash gives Phineus, the cat, a fly-by.

The little Houdini managed to pack himself.

Mr. Air Raid

It is estimated that in 87% of Dachshunds the security-oriented portion of the Dachshund brain is hyperactive, causing such threatening delusions as air raid sirens and bears.

Mr. iSpy

From this clever vantage, our friend the Dachshund need only swivel his pop-eyed peeker to keep tight watch over this room, while relaxing in his favorite lazy position.

Mr. New Calling

So, it seems that Bug has decided it's time to move on. His mother and I awoke to find his little cage door ajar... and no Bug in sight. Before celebrating, we checked his recent email messages and we may have stumbled across a few clues.

From what we've pieced together we believe that he's been accepted to some sort of baby Dachshund training camp. We're not sure where it is or really what's going on at this point. We'll keep you updated.

We'll carry Bug in our memories. We miss you Bug. Please come home.

Mr. Inventor

After great "success" at his, ahem, previous job, Bug has moved onward and upward to the frontier of technological innovation. Today he demonstrates his latest invention:



The Baby Dachshund Paw Warmer.*



Mmmmm, warm Dachshund...

*Compatible with both Dachshund and Baby Dachshund paws.

Mr. Unmarketable

We visited Philidelphia; we perused the farmer's market; we tried to pawn our Dachshund; nobody wanted him. We'll keep him for now.

Mr. Brunch

Even tiny Dachshunds need brunch. Unfortunately tiny Dachshunds often go overlooked.

Mr. Beastly Brontosaurus

Again, the likeness lizardy and down-right dinosaur.

Mr. Ambush

Please excuse the flash. Night footage. I've got to warn all of you outside NYC and all of those who might venture outside of NYC like I did. I'll get right down to it: if you cross paths with a patch of bushes, be wary. Don't assume you know what sort of nest might be inside.



And for goodness sake, keep your hands outa there!




Mr. Björn Identity

More hard work in Bug's office...

Mr. First Class

I'm sure he had a good reason for "wanting to be the first to get the mail." I've confirmed with Bug that he was not and would not try to escape via the US Postal.

Mr. Sick

Bug is sick right now.



He threw up.

Mr. Trim

Not all Dachshunds are blessed to be in the exquisite shape and form of the Bug. In fact, many Dachshunds are quite fat. More remarkable, however is that Japanese scientists have located one such chunky Dachshund more spoiled, coddled, and fawned over than Bug!

Mr. Bug Mobile

Yeah, Bug does mobile blogging. Ain't no thing. He's world-wide.

Please click the picture to see the tiny blue bug-eyes.



Mr. Upper Management

It takes a lot to be a leader.

Mr. So Sleepy

Dachshund Education, Session 449:
The Dachshund, including the lesser (in size) Baby Dachshund, is a lazy animal. When the Dachshunds owner gets up each morning, between 5 and 7, the Dachshund quickly leaps from bed, eats some food, and even more quickly flies back to the bed for more sleep. Though it would be impossible to conduct a rigorous scientific study of the Dachshund or his sleeping habits, it is estimated that the Dachshund can sleep up to 19 hours per day.
Bug is much too tired for his morning walk.



Yes, all Dachshunds sleep atop down comforters.

Bug Howls at Howling Bug

I'm sorry, what?




Howler Bug

I'm not sure if all of you have seen the Bug truly distressed...

Mr. Bad

Dear Bug-A-Day readers,

I write to you today to announce the potential end of Bug-A-Day. Yes, Bug has threatened to shutdown this site, "and all the rest of the websites on the Internet," unless I start writing more truthfully about Dachshunds and baby Dachshunds. Apparently word got around that I was occasionally alluding to the fact* that Bug is a bad Dachshund and was a bad baby Dachshund during his youth. Bug says his sources even reported hearing that he was mischievous and "devily".

Well, from now on i'll be posting only the truth about Dachshunds. You'll have to infer what you will from the pictures.



*no longer a fact

Mr. Manager

Now there's one thing we know for sure, and that's that Alex would not do her work were it not for Bug's watchful eye (see the eye further below).



...it also just happens that there is a soft bed in the sun right where Bug has found the ideal oversight vantage point.



By the way, and this is really just a word of caution to Dachshund owners, have any of you ever accidentally washed your Dachshund with the colors instead of the darks?
