    AT AT Dachsund!!!

  2. feefifoto says:

    That puppy looks older than two weeks. And cuter.

  3. muttluver says:

    I just sat here for several minutes looking into the puppeh’s eyes.

    Cutest thing that’s been here in a while. :D

  4. pyrit says:

    Ohhh jeepahs. Too cute.
    It’s Slinky dog from Toy Story.

  5. (The Original) Mel says:

    Pup’s face says, “Oh no you di-int!”

  6. Nikki says:

    What a little lovebug! Perfect face, but it looks like Miles may need to pull his socks up…

    • O NO He/ She/ It DI-unt!!! says:

      Well-put.
      I was gonna mention “wrinkles”, but you did it bettois!!!

    “2-week old Miles is strutting around like he owns the place says Sender-Inner Kirsten M. ”

    I just want to know what makes Kirsten think he doesn’t ?
    Seriously , with that face he owns anything he wants to !

    • Mary (the first) says:

      My first thought also: “like” he owns the place? Of course he owns the place!

  8. MudBug says:

    O.k. how aware am I ? I just noticed my name said mudbig instead of mudbug !
    Now I’m wondering how long that’s been that way ?????

    • SoCalSis says:

      Been awhile, anyways. We wondered, but didn’t want to ask, don’cha’know… Thought maybe there were some Life Transitions going on, Explorations, maybe… Or maybe it just meant that was one BIG MudBug!

  9. Tori says:

    OMG!!! He can own anything he wants!!!! He owns my heart!!! :) I just LOVE Doxies!!!!!

  10. Melissa says:

    I am guessing it is a typo and he is probably 12 weeks. ;) Most puppies are just opening their eyes at around two weeks! (And what adorable ones this little pup has.)

  11. Mz Julia says:

    Yay! Finally, a Dox-Hound on the CO! :D

  12. Juniper Jupiter says:

    Am I the only one who thinks these kind of Dachshunds have hoomin eyes? :D

      Yes, definitely a candidate …..

  14. Mocha says:

    Oh my gah. Pudgy legs? Slight baroo expression? Huge, soul-searing eyes? I am struck ded by my unfulfillable need to pick him up and snorgle him frantically. And also by the dangerous adorableness, of course.

  15. Winston says:

    cute face

  16. Ali-baba says:

    Oh my snot! That is one singularly scintillating look that puppeh is tossin’ out!

  17. dmaufer says:

    Bit of a baroo there…. lof the brown eyebrow spots!

  18. paulajeanne says:

    Gah! It’s the head tilt!

  19. birdcage says:

    Speaking of brown doxies, there’s a new Iso in Slo-mo vid on YouTube.

  20. BatBlaster says:

    A Dachsund right? Someone needs to get some buns. Look at the expression in its green eyes. SO adorables.

  21. Hon Glad says:

    I think he’s chocolate flavoured.

  22. Kathy says:

    “What’choo talkin’ ’bout, Willis?”

  23. crazy wienerdog lady says:

    Ok, today is my birthday and as I opened CO I thought “it would be AWESOME if there was a wienerdog on my bday” OHHHH EEEM GEEEEEEEEE! I bebah choco-late and tan veener dawg! I LOVE YOU CO! You have made my day with the bebah veener dog pudgy feet rolls. MUAH! I will now go kiss on my own baby wiener dogs :)

    • Gigi says:

      Well happy birthday there crazy wienerdog lady. Big air kisses to you and your baby!

    • O NO He/ She/ It DI-unt!!! says:

      “Happy Birfday to yoooooooooooou
      Happy Birfday to yoooooooooooooou

      Happy Biiiiiirfday CWDL,
      Happy Birfday to yoooooooooooou!!!!!”

      *places a shiny, conical Birfday Hat on CWDL’s head and slices off a big chunk of Birfday Cake for her*

      • muttluver says:

        Hahaha, our “thing” in our family is that we call people on their bdays and sing happy birthday while the dog (sometimes dogs, now) howls along. It’s hilarious.

    • Beth says:

      Happy birthday, weinerdoglady! I think it should be a rule of cuteness that wienerdogs are AUTOMATICALLY cute! I mean, look at all the cuteness rules this one represents:

      Head tilt
      Rolls of chub
      Stubby little legs
      EYEBROW DOTS!!! (my favorite!!!!)
      I could just keep going and going!! LOVE me some wiener dogs!!!

    • Theresa says:

      Happy Burpday!

  24. Amy says:

    Happy Birthday, crazy wienerdog lady..I’m sure CO planned this post just for you! :o ) And yes, this little guy owns the place and my soul, as well!

  25. Gigi says:

    That is the cutest doggy I’ve seen in a loooong time!

  26. Cambridge Rat Mom says:

    I’m thinkin’ they meant two months and not two weeks.

  27. Kar says:

    Heck, I’d give him what he wants.

  28. O NO He/ She/ It DI-unt!!! says:

    – Also: Miles’ (Meg’s) hovertext is A+ as well :)

  29. T.U.M. says:

    He’s wearing Japanese schoolgirl loose socks!

  30. LadyGalga says:

    You can tell by looking at his face: he’s gonna be twouble!

  31. Copperbat says:

    Adorbs! But if Miles is 2 weeks old, I’m a purple unicorn!

  32. Noelegy says:

    Traditionally, my affections have been reserved for the larger of the dog set (we have a Husky mix, a Great Pyrenees mix, and just recently acquired a Weimaraner), and so I’ve never been overly squee-ful over small dogs (my hubby calls them “pooper dogs.”)

    This photo has changed that.

  33. Noelegy says:

    P.S. Doxie sox!!

  34. LeAnn (not LeAnna or Lee Ann) says:

    Legwarmers

  35. occula says:

    Crazy! The ears, the mini-baroo, the leg warmers (just back from jazz class, no doubt), the tail, the face, the chubbs, the PUPPEH. *faints*

  36. Beth says:

    I love how Miles is just barely taller than the baseboard molding!!!

  37. Kirsten M. says:

    Hooray! That’s my boy! My husband and I are so proud. :)

    • muttluver says:

      I’ll bet! Is he a fiesty little thing?

      • Kirsten M. says:

        He can be feisty- especially when he wrestles around with our other dachshund who is 7 years old. Most of the time, though, he is just a cuddlebug and just wants a warm lap to sleep in.

  38. Matthew M. says:

    I’m the husband- and I’m dang proud! Also: it is a typo- he’s 12-weeks-cute, going on 13 this week. :-D

  39. Kel says:

    My BF thinks the pup’s eyes are photo-shopped! Say it ain’t so!

  40. Decca says:

    I am now in my happy place.

  41. Jenjen says:

    Just occurred to me this puppers reminds me of Cate Blanchett.
