"Mommy calls me her little gift from God. She came and got me right after her first dog Amos died during neck surgery. She's says I am almost perfect in every way!!"
Likes: Having the inside of his ear scratched!
Pet-Peeves: He hates it if a human burps in his face..................
Favorite Toy: His three with squeeky squirrels in it!
Favorite Food: He loves frozen carrots after his walks...............and cat pooh, we call them kitty tootsie rolls!
Favorite Walk: Any place ya want to walk him!!!He would prefer to jog!
Best Tricks: Tricks?? He can play dead..............but he wags his tail while he's doing it!
Arrival Story: We lost our first doxie during neck surgery. We knew we needed to fill our home with the pitter patter of four short legs again and so this breeder we were very comfortable with. A week after meeting him we went back and brought him home.
Bio: Nugget has never known stairs or what "jumping" off a bed means. He is our second dachshund in our home and uses a ramp for bed and a step to get on the chair. He has calcification inbetween a few disks but is not in pain. He is kept on a strict and healthy diet as well as herbs . We hope to not have him ever go down and will do whatever he needs us to do in order to stay healthy.
Forums Motto:

Duke.
He's a funny little guy.
Being his biog brother is a bit of an honor.
See, he first lived with a very large chow chow.
Then, well he was at mommy's work when the owner came in and said:
"We are here to pick up the chow chow but could someone find a home for the little guy?"
Mom offered right away.
Boy she didn't ask us though!!
He chased me and nipped at my paws.
I was gentle with him though.
This was a new move for him and so I had to show him that no matter how naughty he tried to act, we would never send him away.
He's adopted, NOT disposable!
I love my baby brother Duke.
Always.
They say it's your Birthday neh neh neh neh neh neh!
It's my Birthday too ya!
I'm 8 today! Mommy is super happy. See, their first doxie died before 8 so I am the longest doggie for mom and dad!!
Yeay!! And I feel great!!
Happy Birthday to me and any of my other dogster pals who have a birthday today!!
Mommy had just taken a shower and was drying her hair.
I can't tell you what happened totally cause mommy is still trying to guess.
But this is the story as told by mommy:
I saw Nugget run into the bed room and he was rubbing his face along the comforter and acting a bit spooked.
SO I went to check on him, he kept smacking like maybe he bit his tongue.
I looked some more and thought well maybe a spider bit him?
I went back to the bathroom to finish getting dressed really fast.
Came back out and that is when I saw the red road rash type wound on his neck, the underside. I thought what on earth could make a bite like that.
Daisy Mae and Duke also seemed a bit freaked out and that is about when it accured to me.
It wasn't a bit!
Nuggets collar got stuck on something and choked him, badly!!
So we are now on a mission online looking for those collars they make for cats, breakaway collars, but for Nugget, Daisy Mae and Duke.
My heart is breaking for Nugget. This is the second really bad thing to happen to him in this house and there is just no way to explain to him how sorry I am .
Nugget here. SO see, I can't tell you where I got stuck cause that would ruin the game.
Sending hugs to my pals and I hope this never ever happens to any of you.
