There’s just something about a big pile of laundry that makes it a Dachshund magnet…
Usually Bessie likes the clean clothes when they’ve just come out of the dryer. Probably because they’re all warm and toasty. But this particular pile was a bunch of sheets and towels that Adriane was getting ready to put in the washer. Who knows what goes on in the mind of this Little Girl? I guess she just saw a fluffy pile of lounging goodness and made her move :)
Well, eventually Adriane had to ask the Littlest One to move so she could finish the laundry, and Bessie reluctantly complied.
Luckily for her there are plenty of other comfy places in the house for her to catch a wee Doxi-snooze… :)

I really don’t know what’s gotten into Poppa lately. We had our routine. He comes home from work, he changes his clothes, and we sit together on the couch until bedtime. But now all of a sudden, we’re sitting outside!
I’m not really one who likes the outdoors all that much. Unless there’s a neighbor that needs to be barked at, or a small child that needs to get his/her comeuppance, I generally prefer to be air conditioned during this time of year. But I love my Poppa, so here we are.
As it turns out, he and Momma have become bird watching enthusiasts. Poppa even has a new blog called Backyard Birds (or something like that… check it out for yourself when you get a chance…)
Birds, huh? That must be what all of those fellas are who sing, fly, eat and poop all day out in the yard. I don’t see the big fascination, but I might as well help Poppa spot a few. Hey, isn’t that a Blue Speckled Humming Jay Wren?
HA! Made you look! That’s what Poppa gets for looking at anything else besides his beloved Dachshund!
Well, at the end of the day, I’m the only Little Girl he really loves. I guess he deserves a smooch after all.
Now, let’s get back inside so Poppa can give me a nice long brushing before bed! Goodnight, gentle readers. Until next time… :)

Lots of rain plus a poor drainage system in the backyard can sure add up to one muddy Dachshund! Take Bess Kraemer for example…
Now, it’s certainly not the Little Girl’s fault, so Poppa had to reassure her that all was well by giving her a big smooch!
After the scrubbin’ was done, that Littlest One needed a vigorous drying with a warm towel (she’s not too spoiled!)
Hey, Poppa! Be careful back there!!!
Now, to wrap it all up with a good brushing to bring out her silky smooth coat, and the mud is banished for good. (Well, at least until the next time she goes outside!)
