Mr. Ziploc

Sometimes you just need to be aggressive. The world isn't always going to present itself before you. Occassionally you find that you just need to stick your head into the metaphorical feedbag of life and go at it.



Even if that means a Ziploc of dog food in someone's purse.

Mr. Aphid

Can you spot the Bug in the garden?




Ah yes, here he is. Because Dachshunds are cold-blooded, they need lots of sun.

Mr. Not Everyone Can Always Get Their Way But I Can

Mr. Trash Can Sleepy Time

It may look like Bug is sleeping in a trash can filled with blankets.  I can assure you that that is not the case, nor would he ever have any association with a trash can, whether sleeping in it, or eating from it.  Just wouldn't happen.

On the Brighter Side

Mr. FlightTonight

I think this is the expression your Dachshund makes when you drop him in his economy seat on a United flight to South East Asia and then slowly - you turn around... and beat it for the door.



...but i'm not sure - it could be something else...

Mr. Evil Eye

We arrive on this seemingly innocuous scene, greeted by two cheekily small lux-life animals. 


And then, seemingly out of nowhere, the short-legged long one turns on the fluffy white one: the evil long-eared one engages his demon laser eye to cause the tiny, fluffy-eared one to contort and writhe in horror at the merciless evil of the long dog.

Beware, owners of these long, short-haired, beady-eyed dogs. They might turn on you at any time.

Mr. Mole

Much of life and Dachshund rearing is about how you look at things. One day Bates and I found that our Dachshund had chewed a hole in his bed and subsequently completely burrowed into it.

I choose to understand this not as the Dachshund shredding his bed in a fit of rage at being left in his crate for a few hours, but rather as an instance of creative problem solving: Bug was given a bed but would have preferred a rabbit warren.

Mr. Facelift

It never hurts to try new things - like getting a Dachshund face.

I've always admired that snouty snout.

Mr. Preparedness

If there's anything Bug's not good at it's being under-prepared.  You never know when the deluge might begin.  Inside.

Mr. Green

Bug has decided to reduce his carbon footprint by investing in zero-emissions transportation.



Also, he's lazy.
