Arrival Story:
In 2004, after begging my parents for months to let me get a dog I jokingly said to my Dad, "If I pass my History class, you get me a dachshund." To my surprise he agreed! In May after I found out I passed my class I started my search for a dachshund. I searched online through various sites looking for rescue pups. One of my Mom's work friend's sister even agreed to give me their dachshund since she was getting a cat and didn't know how the animals would get along. A long week passed and on the day I was supposed to get him she called me later in the day to tell me the family changed their mind and wanted to keep the dachshund. I was disappointed but kept looking. In July my family left to go to Texas on vacation while I stayed behind with the other family pets. They found my Bailey in the paper and went over to meet the family who was selling him. My family visited them and got to meet Bailey and his parents. They decided to get him for me as a "souvenier" from Texas. So when they returned from Texas they brought back Bailey and I immediately fell in love with him. The whole family loves him and the funny part is that they were really against getting a dachshund at first and now they are completely in love with this little darling!
Bio:
When I got Bailey he was already 3 months old. Since I didn't get to see him right away to figure out a name I had a couple picked out while my family said they were all dumb. My sister suggested "Bailey" which I dismissed because I didn't want to name my dog after Bailey's Irish Cream. Then I saw him and knew he was a Bailey. We went outside and I kept trying out the name Bailey and he took right to it. He is so small he makes our other dogs look huge even Blackie and she is only 10 lbs! He doesn't seem to grow bigger, just longer.
When I was little my aunt (who took Misty in while we were unable to have her live with us) had 2 dachshunds - Red (a longhair red dachshund) and Princess (his daughter, a shorthair red dachshund). I fell in love with these two and I always loved playing with them. Of all my aunt's dogs they were my favorite. They are the reason I wanted a dachshund in the first place when I went looking for a new companion.
Currently his favorite thing to do is to cuddle with Mom with "his" blanket. Mom has a little fleece cloud blanket that he loves to cuddle in on Mom's lap while she sits at the computer.

i got a new sister last friday. her name is dafni. she's 7 months old and is a red smooth hair. she's adorable. i'm starting to really get along with her...the first day i was scared of her and not used to her but now we play together. her old mommy had bought a new house with her husband and wasn't able to keep me because she had 2 kids plus dafni and her other dachsie boy, bailey (just a coincidence!). so since the lady couldn't afford dafni, she gave dafni to my mom (who really got her for grandma...technically since it was march 31 when we got her, we could say that dafni was an early birthday gift for grandma who had her birthday on april 4). speaking of birthdays... my birthday is on april 9, so i will be 2 years old! mom took me to petsmart and got me an early birthday present - a "giggler" ball. it's a red rubber ball that makes noise. but the "best part" (according to mom) is that it's not like the cuz toys that i chew on (and make them squeak non-stop until broken). a few weeks ago, buck got some bad teeth taken out of his mouth...but he's better now and i'm glad. well...that's all that's new!

i had a good christmas. i got lots of new toys and some new treats. mommy says that my new years resolution is to lose weight though. she called me fat! so i can enjoy my new treats but in moderation. it's not fair but i know that it's best for me in the long run. i've only put on a pound or two but eventually it adds up to a lot and i don't want to look like a sausage!
i'm also going to be in a different obedience class later this year. the lady ("loren") who taught the class i was in decided to be mean and quit working for the petsmart where she was working. and the other lady ("jen") that would take over "loren's" classes was mean to mommy on the phone. so mommy got a refund and is looking at other petsmarts to get my training done. i was doing well too!
