I’ve named two other Doper’s dogs. 😉

I’ll let you know if it becomes three. 😉

It’s been 15 years since I’ve had a pup. What are everyone’s favorite chew toys for their doxies? Besides the kong, which I already have on order. This fella is definitely a chewer.

My Crew like The Little Things of Nature. Mice, squirrels, rabbits. They all liked lizards for about the first bite. They must be _awful_ for a Dox not to eat it.

They used to get Pig Ears and Bully Sticks, but not for a while now. Not really big chewers. But they are all pretty much full grown now.

Lewis always loved a good chew of a pig’s ear, too. But I had to keep an eye on him. He’d manage to eat way more of it than he should and always horked it back up. Ugh.

I hope the new guy grows out of chewing, too, as Lewis did. He was going to town on a soft chew toy in the video, though. I’m worried for my footwear!!

Teddy (being an unmitigated Rascal) likes to shit in people’s shoes when given the opportunity.

I am overloading on cute. And I know a dachshund named Buster. He likes treats.

Thank you. I do think he’s a looker, but I might be a tad bit biased.

_Is_ there a dachshund that won’t commit murder for a treat? 😃

I don’t know why, but there is a commerical from Youtube that would not embed here. But if you use _2015 Dachshund Doritos commerical_ you will find it The dog is a real carpet shark.

Then of course there’s the Sprint dachshund commercial, the Heinz Commerial, and the commercial from Iams.

I love this thread.

Me, too. 🙂

It’s @Gatopescado’s thread. I’d love to keep this one going for doxie pics, but if he prefers, we can start a new one. What say you, Catfish? I’m fine with either choice.
