So today when we drove home from the store, we see a woman walking a daschund. He was such a cute doggy, short-haired reddish/brown color. We even stopped to chat with him a bit and he jumped in our car. His owner said he liked to go for rides. When we parked the car, I told the girls that if Mike ever deployed we were getting a daschund.
During dinner, we were talking about dogs in general and I did say that I wanted a daschund. Mike of course, did the whole "no dog" speech, taking care of it, etc...I pointed out that when Logan was over, I was the primary dog caregiver and that I'm the only one that cleans Onge's cat litter, water dish and food dish.
I remembered back a few months ago when Sheri and I saw someone at the golf course with a daschund. The lady said that someone was getting rid of the dog and they got her for free. With my mind spinning after that memory, I immediately scoured the house for newspapers to see if there were any ads for daschunds. I actually found 3, two were already taken and now I'm waiting for an email response on the third.
I'm not sure if this will work out, but I just LOVE weenie dogs and I think we'd do good with one and the cat. Like with anything, there's always an adjustment period but we'll be good. Here's to hoping!!!
Hi Christine! Discovered your blog thru SCS Bloggers' Club and am so glad I did! I just love your work (and I love daschunds, too!)...so much so that I'm passing along an award to you! Obviously, you don't have to play along, but the rules are there on my blog if you want to. Just my way of letting a fellow papercrafter know how much I appreciate her ideas and inspiration! I'll be checking back soon for more of both, and in the meantime, have a great weekend!

Did you get the daschund Christine? I LOVE doxies too! It makes me so sad that I am allergic... :(
Hope all is well!
