It’s no secret that I’m pretty much an expert hunter, especially when it comes to groundhogs.
While I now can spend hours on the farm digging down holes after my furry little friends, did you know that I actually started honing my hunting skills as a young pup on something much much smaller….
Those poor stink bugs never stood a chance.
What sort of things does your dog like to hunt? 
I’ve always been quite good at entertaining myself, even when I was a young pup I found many ways to amuse myself while working long hours at the shop with mom.
And when you don’t have a toy on hand, there’s always a built in one on your own back end!
I was about 6 months old in this video, and to this day I still like chasing my tail sometimes!
Does your dog chase his tail?
It’s been a little while since I’ve done a Throwback Thursday on the blog, so I thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane today!
Back when I was just a wee pup my pal Trooper used to come to the shop to “babysit” me everyday. While I did get in my fair share of puppy antics, Trooper and I also did a whole lot of napping together……
You gotta love a best friend that will let you use him as a pillow!
Starting at just a few weeks old I was already in training to becoming an international supermodel.
With a camera shoved in my face 24/7 (thanks mom!), I was learning how to look oh so sexy for the camera.
It wasn’t that hard actually, because I was (and am) adorable…..
….even when I’m sleeping!
One of the questions I get a lot is why do I tolerate wearing coats, sweaters, and even costumes so well? The answer is simple, I was born in October and warm outfits became an important part of my everyday life to keep me warm at a very young age!
Not to mention I looked oh-so-good in a hand knitted sweater!
Nothing better than a Dachshund in a sweater! xoxo
It’s Throwback Thursday time! I dug through my old puppy photos and pulled out these gems to share with you today.
I was pretty cute, right? Well it’s about to get even cuter – because there is one thing I’m pretty sure none of you can resist…..it’s the elusive puppy head tilt!
What’s that you say, you’ve melted into a puddle of goo? Yea, I can have that effect. *wink*
Since I’ve been laying a little low lately (while mom’s recovering from knee surgery), I decided it would be fun to share some of my adorably cute photos from my puppy years. I didn’t have a blog back then, so these photos haven’t seen the light of day in quite some time. But have no fear, it’s Throwback Thursday time, and I’ve dug through my archives and found some super sweet puppy pictures to brighten your day!
As you can see, even at a couple months old I was quite the athletic guy! It’s no wonder my muscles are huge now. And check out my spots! I bet you didn’t know that I’m actually a red dapple, and at certain times of the year (when the sun hits me just right) my spots are much more visible.
I hope you enjoyed my #throwbackthursday – perhaps I’ll have to make this a regular feature on the blog!
