We’ll be holding a DRNA adoptathon today from 12-3pm at the Brier Creek Petsmart. We will be showing off Precious, Darby, Overton, Dash, and Frankie. 

We spent most of yesterday at the Kernersville adoptathon. We had lots of people interested in Beanie than anyone else, and not too many “qualified” adopters.

We then went to the Dachshund Meetup and had a wonderful chat with some other dog parents at the dog park.

Finally, the people who adopted Teddy and Andy came down to pick up Peanut!

All the photos can be seen here, but there was a large smudge on the camera and lots of the pictures have a blurry spot right down the middle :-(

We drove up to Manassas, VA this weekend for the Mid-atlantic Dachshund Picnic. An event similar in nature to the North Carolina Wiener Roast including many of the same people and events, but it allows Dachshund fanatics to celebrate more than just once per year! Lily participated in several events, but the competition was stiffer and the judging was questionable. She came in second in the bobbing for wieners contest, though we feel that the judges extra “treats” between rounds were meant to jeapordize her stamina by filling up her stomach with hot dogs. She also didn’t make it out of her first heat and came in second place. Lily, Cody, and Marshall also greatly enjoyed the event and spent the day lounging in their x-pen. We greatly enjoyed seeing many of our former fosters and adopters including Leah, Teddy & Andy, Samantha, Willie, and Hannah.

On Sunday we drove back to Carborro just in time for the Dachshund Day at Weaver Street, where a local fanatic holds a gathering for all local dachshund friends!

Yesterday we threw a small party for Lily to celebrate the two year anniversary of her adoption! Lily got a number of very generous presents and fun was had by all.
