on dachshunds and delights

PREWARNING: IF YOU DON’T LIKE DACHSHUNDS, OR DOGS IN GENERAL, LEAVE NOW! GO WATCH A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE…OR SOMETHING…
So, as some of you have garnered, I am the proud owner/tamer/companion to two very sassy dachshunds named CCD Fletcher von Barkwell and Itsy’s Bit of Couture ML. Despite their opulent sounding names, Fletch and Linus are two of the goofiest, sweetest, most ridiculous dogs in the world.
Fletcher & Linus, looking like pure innocence…oh, please.So, this upcoming month is Linus’s debut into the world of competitive confirmation shows. He looks amazing stacking, walks off the lead like a dream…
…and won’t stop wagging his tail. Kid you not, if he was any bigger than 10 pounds, that tail could be classified a deadly weapon. He’s knocked my glasses off my face, papers off the coffee table, and wreaked havoc with this little eight inch long appendage.
What’s funny is that his tail wags so hard when he’s happy, he loses his balance!
So yes, I’m extremely nervous about my little buddy kicking some tail in the arena. He’ll be competing against his younger half-brother and his sire Tucker! It’s a family affair at the Asheville Kennel Club.
