Dachshund Pictures | P.T. Goes To China

Another glorious day at the horse barn with my rescue dog pals and the horses...Aaah, that's the life. This particular outing, I was rather taken by my friend, P.T.'s digging attempts. Let me share my dachshund pictures with you.

Doxie working hard
What's that red stuff off to the side?

And digging

A doxie's dedication
More red stuff, hmm

The red blur was P.T.'s brother, Nathan the horse

Special guest appearance by Dexter the doxie
supervising his lil' bro

P.T. unperturbed continues with his digging expedition and hopes to reach China sometime soon

Making progress at last!

Welcome back to the United States of America
Passport, license, and registration please

The sad part was that P.T. needed and got a bath after this photo sequence. It's a shame that he didn't learn anything from his brother's dog training tips.

    We are so impressed with the horses hanging with the dogs! So neat!!!

    We are glad PT got back to the US safe and sound... looks like he neglected to bring anyone back souvenirs!

    Excavating looks like a fun way to spend an afternoon.

    I thinks you is secretly fascinated by us doxies and really want to be one of us...kinda like me wanting to be a chiwawa.
    You know, I haves some mad digging skills myself and BARKING skills too...it's a doxie thing.

    For some reason, Mom said we can't let Ciara see this post:)

    Good work, P.T.

    I guess a doxie's gotta dig, regardless of the consequences, just like birds gotta fly, fish gotta sing...no, that's not right, but something like that.

    Hi Twink...nothing much funnier than an Doxie on a mission!!! You can the Doxie out of Germany but you cannot take away their instinct to dig their way to China. Must be that badger hunting gene.

    Cute pictures,
    Madi and Mom

    That was a swell demo on digging!! Too bad a bath had to follow. BOL.

    Mom put PetZoom.com on the computer and some goofy cleaning brush came up. We need to go look at your post again for the proper name.
    Smooches,

    We just ordered 2 of those zoom things---somehow ended up spending $40. Mom has to learn to be verrrry careful whilst pushing buttons when ordering on line---they didn't show the price until the sale was final!XX-BRD

    Gosh, that's impressive! Maybe that's where I gots my ability to dig (since I'm part doxie, you know). The other day, I dug up this snake and tried to pull it outta the ground with my teefies. But mom stopped me cuz she said it was really the cable to our teevee box. I think she was wrong but what can you do?

    Wiggles & Wags,

    No badgers down there? At least there are horses on THIS side of the globe! We love herding ours around. The CCC
