~Patch~

This is Patch. He is a Miniature Long-Haired Daschund. He loves his people. I'm one of his people. He's slightly neurotic. We adopted him about 18 months ago from a shelter in Aubrey. He had been left there, along with his brother, because his previous owners locked them up in a pool house and were upset when they came home to find their pool house torn up and pooed all over. Patch pooed all over our house at first too, among other things. But now he is doing well. Never has accident's in the house and doesn't chew. He even shows emotions other than distress. He loves to have his belly rubbed. And wags his tale every time you say his name. Every time. I love that! He loves to GO....click here to see how much! If my hubby and I are sitting in a chair, he is on us. If I'm alone at the house, he follows me from one room to the next. He loves his people. And he's very tolerant of other dogs. He doesn't like his people to leave him. Just ask my sister Jill. She watched him while we were in Florida in June. He made her very aware of his dismay!

Aaaawww! I agree with Jenny. I'll never understand how some people can be so cruel to animals. I'm so glad you rescued him (and we know he is!) The video is so funny. :o) I miss not having a dog.
Have a great weekend ~
