Likes:
I love more than anything to chase a ball all day long, be the center of attention, curl up on mom's lap, go to visit grandma & grandpa and bark at the pugs next door, and play with George the bassett/beagle

Pet-Peeves:
I detest vaccuums, the ironing board, any sort of cleaning makes me very nervous and I have to run and hide under the bed.

Favorite Toy:
Probably my racquet ball, it's my favorite to chase, but I also am very fond of this cloud shaped toy that giggles and talks, and squeeks. It's my girlfriend!

Favorite Food:
FROSTY PAWS... anything from Starbucks! I like to distract mom and nudge her coffee just enough so the foam will overflow the lid, and I drink it up!

Favorite Walk:
I like to walk just about anywhere mom and dad take me. Our neighborhood is nice because I know my way around there. One time mom and I were playing ball at the park, and I got spooked, and started running until I stopped on my front porch.

Best Tricks:
I just recently learned to sit on command, only because my brother was doing it, and receiving treats in return. I like to stand up like a meerkat, or prairie dog, it has a 99.9% effictiveness of ensuring being picked up, or paid attention to!

Arrival Story:
My mommy wanted a second doggie because she knew Maxwell was getting old, and it might be nice for him to have some company, maybe help keep him from being a grump. Daddy wasn't a big fan of the idea of a second dog, so they went back and forth about it for quite a while. Mommy had always had big dogs, so she wanted to try and small dog, and daddy kept saying no to any kind she was interested in. Finally, she tried to suggest a miniature dachshund, knowing daddy had one when he was a kid, and he actually agreed. So mommy looked on the internet, and found the place where I was born and started e-mailing them. When asked which puppy she wanted, mommy told them the one with personality, and she ended up with me, Mr Personality!

Bio:
my older brother was a rottweiler, so I think I am too!

Forums Motto:
Chase balls til you drop!
