Dawgie Update.....

Oskar has a vet appointment tomorrow...Mama spoke with Dr. Condon & advised that Oskar's IBS is flaring up about once a week...so we need to get that under control...the medication no longer seems to be helping & it's also time for urine testing to check his kidney function. Keeping our paws crossed that we get our boy feeling better.

Liesel & Mama did a little retail therapy..as any sweaters we have are too big...these pretty pink ones fit perfectly. We will be needing a treat pouch for Puppy Kindergarden next month, so we picked that up & a tag with Liesel inscribed on it & a big, nubbly Nylabone to chew on. And roasted marrow bones are a favourite item for chewing...as are Dad's slippers.



And the new car seat arrived...since Benson grew out of his smaller car seat, Mama gave him Schatzi's seat. When Liesel arrived...a new car was ordered & it arrived yesterday! Dad just needs to hook it up in the back seat...and we're good to go!!

I Won Him Over - He Likes Me!!

I knew Oskar liked me... we had our first play this morning...(he was just playin' hard to get)...





We had the bestest time...








And...I had a playdate with Benson the other night....the first 10 minutes or so we spent barking & getting to know one another....then the zoomies & fun began...



Now...I'm going to have a little *yawn* snooze..it's a yucky snowy & wet day here...the kind of day doxies don't appreciate being forced to "go" outside in...



Hope you're having a paw-some day!!

So Much To Do.....

Leaves a wire pup feeling v-e-r-y sleepy....



Yesterday was a big day...I got to meet Dr. Condon & all the paw-some people at my vet clinic...they even took my picture to put on their FB page...aw shucks...so much adoration....but anyhow...I am in perfect health...my eyes are good, my ears are squeaky clean, my skin is grrrreat & all my 2,000 other body parts...are pur-fect! I had some good tasting stuff while I was there...for protection against kennel cough..since...can you stand any more excitement?

I start Puppy Kindergarden in December...yep...I'm going to school! Not that Oskar isn't teaching me the fine art of barking & begging for food...I think they want to teach me "good stuff"! They use a thing called a clicker...and treats...hey, if treats are involved....count me in!!

And, if all this wasn't pawsitively exciting enuf...I had a bath! Yep, I did...and I smell like a real princess now! I really didn't mind it & I got to roll & roll in the towels afterward. In the future, I will be going to a groomer...Mama & I are having a consult & meet & greet with her in a couple of weeks...just so she knows how special I am & I need to be kept all princess-like!

Now...don't think we are going to rename this blog the "All About Liesel" blog (although...wouldn't that be cool?)..cause we still have my new brother to cope share with! He's still a grumbly-growly guy..but sometimes...I tease him...he just wants to show me who is boss...well...since he is older wiser...I let him think that he is the boss!

This evening...we are going to Mama's grand puppy's house...Benson is a whole year old...I'm looking forward to having someone closer to my own age to play with! If we're not too lightening fast...Mama hopes to get some pictures!

Well...it's time for my afternoon nap...catch up with you all later!!

My First Night Home....

Mama is happy to report..I had a great night..no problems at all!! I slept soundly in my crate, til about 4:00 am, then Mama decided to take me out for a potty break.

Not to brag or nuthin'...(and we don't want to jinx anything)...but I've done all my busy-ness....outside! Yep...I'm that good! And cute...did I mention cute? I luv squeaky toys...and I don't even try to rip their guts out!! I love to chase them when they get tossed down the hallway.



Oskar & I are getting "acquainted"...see...he's been the Boss...the Head Cheese...for a very long time time now...and he didn't realize...I'm a wire girl...I take no guff from anyone...so when he barks at me...I barks right back! We're gonna get along just fine...



It's hard to get pictures of me..cause I'm such a busy girl...I've had my breakfast, gone for a short walk (I was a country gal..so the city noise traffic scares me a bit). I came from a wonderful registered breeder in Ontario...I was super good on the plane...and Mama & Dad picked me up at the airport in Nova Scotia. I know my Ontario family misses me bunches & bunches...but they know I am in the bestest home ever..here in PEI!!

I'm having a before lunch nap.
Oskar is snuggled in his bed in front of the fire & I'm in mine close by Mama!

Can't wait to meet all my friends in Bloggieville!!

Introducing...........

Liesel!! (my Mama named me that).. I'm a wild boar wire-hair dachshund...I was born July 29, 2014....so I am almost 4 months old!!

Looking all gorgeous on my way home in the car....after an early...(did I say early?) morning flight...



Here I am...out for my first official "walk"....need some training on the leash....and scared of the cars when they go by...but did really well overall



There are going to be some "growing pains"...as expected....I'm a puppy...Oskar is a senior....but we will sort it out. And...I bark.....mostly for him to play with me .....then he barks...and we all have a barking good time!!

Phew! I'm really tired (a girl needs her beauty rest)...snuggling with my Mama & having sweet dreams!!!

Final Clue....

The Big Announcement & Photos tomorrow!!!

Clue #2...

Psssst!! We've Got A Secret!!

Here's a little hint....



Stay tuned for updating news!!!

LEST WE FORGET

Benson

This is my nephew, Benson....he's "ok"....my peeps say I
have to be nice to him..cause he's just a pain in the ass ...
a pup & learning stuffs....

Mama & Dad go all "gaga" over him....
(ok...so the kid is cute when he's sleeping...)



And I'm glad I'm not the only one who
suffers the torture of being dressed silly...



And what dachshund hasn't been subjected to
the cursed "hot dog" bun costume?



And remind me to teach you not to
squat to pee! Jeesh...
