My partners in crime

Like the name of my blog says, this is also about my doxies. Dachshunds or doxies, wiener dogs, hot dogs, sausage dogs, are well.. Demanding.  They think  know they own you. They have extremely strong personalities and they rarely listen to what you say. If they could speak, their first words would be: "f-u, you go fetch the ball, you're the one who threw it".  They are manipulative, and they might fake a heart attack just so they don't have to go out in the rain (no, it's not a joke, they really can fake heart attacks and other conditions). And they REALLY hate the rain. Doxies are also very, very smart - unfortunately for us owners. Whenever doxie-owners meet, we share a look of pity, desperation and mutual understanding.

So, let's meet the wieners.

This is Elsa. She is 2,5 years old and my baby. She is extremely energetic and loving but not the sharpest tool in the shed. I'm not sure if animals can have AD/HD, but I'm pretty sure this one does. Elsa's favorite words are "karkki" (candy) and "nukkumaan" (let's go to bed). This girl weighs less than 4 kilos, but when she sees herself in the mirror she sees a great dane. Or perhaps a bear.





This one on the right is Alma, 3 years old. She is the sensible big sister, who likes to sit and think about things and take her time. She is really smart and learns tricks quickly. But she might also be the laziest dog I have ever met. She HATES waking up early, and I have even found her sleeping and hiding in a pillow so we would not find her. Alma likes to whine whenever things don't go her way, which is often. She is also just like her mom, and looooooves food. We were/ are both on a diet, so I get the whining ;)
