Rain, Rain, Rain
We've had quiet a bit of rain as of late in central Ohio and the dogs are a tad house happy (not to mention the humans!). This morning we had them out before the predicted afternoon thunderstorms begin again.
Stitch (the silver dapple) is 6 years old and we bought him from a wonderful breeder in Oregon. He is a great representation of the dachshund breed - calm, very attached to his family, good with kids, a bit worried during thunderstorms (adding to the house happiness mentioned above - lots of hiding in the deepest recesses of the pantry, wimpering).... We moved to Ohio over two years ago and wanted him to have a friend. Enter Oscar into the scene as a Christmas present from hubby in 2008. Wow - stellar opposite to Stitch. Oscar is a livewire. Runs everywhere and a non-stop PIA for Stitch. Wants to play constantly and, Stitch, being a little on the chubby side, cannot keep up with him. Attached is a picture of Oscar trying to get Stitch to chase him through the yard.
They are back in the house now, barking non-stop as my daughter has a friend over. Just kicked the kids outside for a little peaceful knitting time.
awww, they are so cute.
