Summer came and went....

Summer came and went by way too fast, next thing i know it's October already! October is always a super busy season for me as I work at a Costume store, Halloween is just around the corner! Hence the baby dog has been slightly, just slightly neglected. However, I still managed to snap a few hilarious photos of him.
Downside of being a sausage dog, no bed is long enough or should i say, no bed is ever the right shape....

Rusty has the habit of hogging all his toys on his bed...

The only time he got to sleep on the bed: he would like to think he is human, hence sleeping belly up is required.

Something I realized about Rusty, he is now almost 3 years old and it is always interesting to see him growing more and more mature. I always feel like his change is instant. I would one day suddenly feel like my boy has grown more mature! When he was 1 year old, I couldn't wait for the day he gets less jumpy, less puppy-like and then one day, BOOM! suddenly he is so mellow, never tugs on his leash like a wild beast anymore. When he was 2 years old, I wished he was more obedient because a food addict and natural hunter like him would chase after anything that moves. Now, he is almost 3 years old and few days ago while i was walking him without a leash, BOOM! he is just such a sweetheart, he listens to me and it's almost like he is my real 3 year old child. Just the other day, he wanted to come onto our bed but he knows he is only allowed on the bed when he sleeps on a particular piece of cloth we give him. SO, he whined for a good 30 seconds and I had no clue what he wanted! THEN he slowly walked over to his cloth that was hanging and tugged it to show me what he wanted! Maybe this is nothing to other people but it is definitely something new and interesting for me. *sigh* now i feel like he is growing up too fast for me!

Where is the dachshund?!

I recently made a new bed for Rusty and to try cope with his excessive shedding and stinking up the bed so fast, I wrapped the bed with an old T-shirt and the very next day, this is what I find....

He is now sleeping in between the shirt and the bed like a sleeping bag!
Super cute...I love my dachshund.. :)

Nice day out...

Finally a nice day out...and Rusty is doing what he always does when the sun is out...
SUN-TANNING!!! as if he's not dark brown enough...

 As I was watching him sun tan, I realized how physically awkward it is for him to lay down on his two front paws! those little paws are no where near long enough for him to rest his head on...


O my puppy..I love you still :D
Hope everybody's enjoying their weekend!

Random video of Rusty..

This is a video of something Rusty does on a daily basis...
Since young, he's always slept on beds/couches/legs, soft surfaces basically and now he's spoiled!
I just washed the couch's cover and refuse to let him on the couch without his bed and this is what he does...


I also came across this video another day and it's a MUST SEE!!
I almost died laughing from this video..

Why is it so hard to find clothes that fit!?

Hope everybody's had a good start of 2011!!! Last week was also the Chinese New Year, hence the obvious lack of attention for this blog....

I find it the hardest thing to find a shirt/jacket that fits Rusty perfectly, if it's big enough for his big chest, it is way too long for him, if it's long enough and big enough for him, his sleeve would be dragging on the floor.... SO FAR, I have not found one piece of clothing that fit him! Is it just me? or this is everybody's pain? 
It is impossible not only to find clothes for Rusty, it's hard to find a good harness that fits him since his chest is super big, usually if the chest fits, the collar part would be too loose. It's also hard to find him shoes because his leg is just..too short! 
Here is an example...
Anybody got suggestions? any good brands that fit doxies well?
I am considering custom making his shirts from now on by myself since I have a sewing machine doing nothing at home, we'll see how that goes...

Ahh...another year has gone by...

It's been a while since an update was posted..
Mommy went back to Vancouver to visit Grandma for Xmas and I was left with an Auntie who took me to Ottawa! How cool!!
Although when I got back, I was so quiet and not myself that mommy thought I was sick or I forgot all about her, she was sad... but I was just tired from the long car ride back from Ottawa.
I hope everybody had a wonderful and safe Xmas, LOTS AND LOTS of nice presents...
and enjoy the warm weather..
Here are my pictures updates, ENJOY!!

Ready for my walk outside... <3


Hum...Squirrel!!! ATTACK!!!

Not happy Mr.Squirrel didn't come play with me..

TUG OF WAR!


Mommy didn't want to play tug of war with me.. So i end up throwing the toy myself and catch it..

YUM...



MY PRESENT FOR XMAS!!

I don't like pictures...they make my eyes squint..
