My name is Greta but I love when my humans call me "Peanuts". I am a wiggly girl who loves to cuddle & generally be as close to my people as possible. I love to climb on the back of the sofa when D is at the desk. We're almost at eye level then! My people tell me all the time how smart & sweet I am & I do my best to be a good girl. I wasn't completely housebroken when I got here but we've worked on that. It's helped that one of my people is home during the day because I get lots of attention, love & walks outside 24/7 which we all know is what dachshunds deserve!!

I think this is my 4th or 5th home so I've had a lot of losses & changes. I do have some issues with being anxious and territorial & can't really be around many people or other dogs. I am on a medication now which is helping a bit & I'm getting ready to start obedience training. I've heard there are many treats involved with that so I'm looking forward to it!!

My humans have been through a lot in the past year. In January, 2011, they lost their Lab "Dickens". I think they're still adjusting to the size difference: D says they got me because I'm portable! Last week, they lost their cat, "Janie". I'm glad I'm here with them to take away some of their sadness just like they're taking away mine. 

I hope everyone finds their furever home like I found mine! 

Kisses & wags, 

Greta
