    Your channel had already become one of my recent favorites, and in this one you have a dachshund! Your status has just been elevated in my view...dachshunds are the best! We have four and they always go camping with us. Nothing keeps your feet warmer on those cold mountain nights than a wiener dog burrowed down at the foot of your bed!

    That was Shadow. He made it just a couple of days past his 16th Birthday. We had 3 that made it to 15+. After losing the last 2 in 2020, we thought we would take a break from dogs. Made it 2-1/2 months before we got another dachshund puppy. Watch for Lil Smokey Bear in our videos this summer!

    While it is never a good time to loose a pet, those are great ages! We have lost three over the years at just over 11 years old for various reasons, but currently have Heidi, a black and silver short hair dapple, that just turned 13 and still going strong. Zooey is about 6. She is a chocolate short hair blind adoptee from a dachshund rescue so we don’t know her age for sure. She can’t see the chipmunks, but she can smell them! And we have two pups that just turned 2 in December. Sophia is a chocolate and cream long hair dapple, and Isabella is a long hair Isabella coat (diluted chocolate). You lasted longer than us... When we lost Maggie, our first dachshund, we were heartbroken and didn’t want to get another dog anytime soon. Less than two weeks later we picked up Coco Puff, and then continued to add to our “pack”! Can’t wait to see Lil Smokey Bear in your upcoming videos! I am making my way through all your past videos and continue to enjoy every one!

    Really great videos and such complete information. Only suggestion is a mic for your wife. We would like to hear her input too. Also, it is great when you point out the water faucets.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I think we can reroute the mic and get it between us.
