Likes: Beds, Blankets, and Cuddling, Being as close to Mommy and Daddy as he can be. Pet-Peeves: His brother Stretch not leaving him alone when he is trying to sleep, or one of his other siblings getting attention and not him. Favorite Toy: Doens't play with toys much, only likes them if Strecth has one. Then he will play just like a puppy. Favorite Food: Anything he isn't suppose to have. Favorite Walk: Anywhere he is taken. He loves to walk. He gets really excited when he sees the leash and makes a whinning sound. Best Tricks: Tricks? Unless you call sneaking tons of kisses a trick. Or rolling over trying to look extra cute when he gets in trouble (which usually works by the way). Arrival Story: Before my husband and I got married we moved in together. He never got to have a pet growing up other then cows and sheep. He had told me numerous times that he wanted a weiner dog. So a week before we moved in together while he was out of town on a business trip, I started hunting for a dachshund for him. I saw Buddy Joe with his lanky body and massive ears and couldnt resist. I called my husband after I picked up Buddy and told him I had a suprise for him when he got home. Needless to say I bothered me until I told him because he wouldnt be home for another week. I told him and he was thrilled. And hadnt even seen Buddy and he named him over the phone: Buddy Joe. Never seen a guy get so musy and soft hearted as my husband when he and Buddy are together. Bio: We love all our dogs without doubt but Buddy Joe has this special connection with my husband and I. Cant really explain it but this little guy has some extra love to give and can really pull on heart strings. The Groups I'm In: Texas Dachshunds!!! I've Been On Dogster Since:
