Here's what Joan Thomas had to say about their Dachshund Katie:
Katie was born Sept.4, 1991 and her papers show her Father was Baron Von
Peanut XI and her Mother was Weinerschitzel Von Tina. She is a red mineature
Dachshund and very much the one who runs our house hold. When we brought her
home from the Breeder, she was 7 months old and she had every kind of worm
except heart-worms, ear mites,mange, covered with fleas and her baby fangs
were preventing her other fangs from coming in. She had never been inside
before. I gave her a nice warm bath and wrapped her in a towel with a fuzzy
blanket and layed in my husbands lap, from that minute she has been a lap dog
and house dog. She was house broken so easily we couldn't believe it. Katie
was so shy, but she has overcome most of that now. She is very protective of
us but she has never bit anyone. She doesn't have to talk, I can feel her
stares when she is behind me and I usually know what she wants, she likes to
stay on a schedule and most of the time demands it. I am allergic to dogs and
cats but since Katie is a low maintance dog, I keep her brushed and wash her
bedding along with vacumming and she doesn't bother my allergies. As you may
have guessed she is "Top Dog " in our house and the only one. Her routine
before she goes to bed at night is to go outside and I am to throw her fuzzy
sleeping bag with pillow in the dryer and warm it so when she returns inside
it is ready for her to jump into and go to sleep. No, she isn't spoiled !
