112. Dachshund Mug

Is it just me, or is this spooky? The body’s flat on the mug, but the head’s 3D – and coming to get you!

Yeah, maybe it is just me!

111. Neglected Dachshunds

Twelve dachshunds have been found neglected and abused so badly that they don’t even have any fur. They all had infections and are now being cared for by Dachshund Adoption, Rescue and Education (DARE).

One died but the others seem to be doing really well in their recovery, and if you watch the video at the following site, you will see just how adorable, playful and trusting they all are, despite their painful ordeal. Read more at:

110. 100% Dachshund?

If you were sold a ‘pedigree’ dachshund but aren’t convinced you weren’t ‘had’ now you can find out for sure. DNA testing for dogs will tell you exactly what breeds make up your dog.

For many owners, it will make a huge difference, as they often have no idea what their dog is! Read more here: http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070524/FEATURES10/70524010/0/FEATURES10

108. More Racing Dachshunds

Rusty the dachshund was the overall winner at Mineola's first ‘dachshund dash’ at last week’s May Day celebrations. Here he is with his owner Tracy Creech. Dachshund owners ran alongside their dogs and shouted and encouraged them in the right direction.

107. Flying Dachshunds

Hard to know who to credit for this picture. It does say at the bottom but I can't read it. It was taken at Belgrade’s Fall Festival but I don’t know what year.

I got it from http://www.naturescornermagazine.com/NaturesBlog/archives/2006/02/index.html so that’s who I’ll credit, although they do not say where they got it from. The same writer Sue reports at the top of the page the story of a bird who was a witness in a divorce trial, and it makes compelling reading but again, no source. So I can’t verify that it is true.

I hate that!

But never mind, enjoy the airbourne dachshunds. Let me know if you know who took the photo.

106. Dachshund Purse

Here’s a photo of a dachshund purse, which believe it or not I’ve had to enlarge myself! Sadly the people aren’t too hot on marketing, and are losing out by having teeny tiny photos of their products. They should be utilising the website so customers can see what they have on sale.

It’s a shame because they could be quality products, and they do have links saying ‘Click to enlarge image’ – but the links just show the same tiny images – Duh!

I emailed them and let them know, but I’ve done that before for people, and instead of taking it for what it is; a bit of common sense business advice, some people don’t like to be criticised. Let’s hope they welcome the suggestion.

105. Dachshund Models

This is Sausage, and he is a professional model (yeah he's taking a rest!) Film makers, Advertising Companies and other media need animal models all the time, and Sausage is on the books of model agency Pet London Models.

I was pleased to find there are other dachshund models on the same site called Kevin and Dave (I love dogs with ‘human’ names!), but was drawn to Sausage in this picture.
