I'm watching two dachshunds sleeping sweetly and peacefully on the loveseat. Of course, they barked right through the end of Fringe tonight, they demanded a pillow and blanket (one each), which basically left no room for a person anymore, and fought over prime position. Sigh.
I probably have the orneriest (is that a word?) dachshund ever, and yet I'm ridiculously nuts about her. I named her Nixie, which I found in a German name book, and it meant "water sprite". Cute, I thought. Then I saw an article that explained the history of nixies, which are EVIL water sprites. I cursed my dog.
Of course my mom's dog, Hayley, is no better behaved, and she has a normal (albeit too human) name. Her name is irritating, because my husband's name is Lee, and "Hayley" sounds too much like "Hey, Lee." Oh, the hilarity and confusion that ensues.
A friend of mine also has a dachshund, named Gatsby. This clip is for her today. Her dog doesn't like his new apartment, and has taken to barking. Well, maybe Gatsby can get some training from this dachshund.
But since today's theme is pets, I have a few more pet antics that I wanted to pass along...
catapulting cat: this one starts slow, but trust me, it's worth the wait.
slinky: short but sweet.
chick pals: i wish I had this dog's energy.
letter opener: your mail will never be the same.

ninja cat: another slow starter, but pretty great.

Yes, my dog has trust issues. Currently we are working on homeopathic panic remedies. Sheesh. This dog gets better healthcare than I do!
