Bailey - SC
From the first day we had Arthur he has been a friendly lovable little boy. He was just a little timid the first day or so ... But has really come out of his shell, to say the least :) He loves to chew on anything he can get his mini paws on, so we made sure to get a bunch of hard puppy toys to keep him occupied, which he loves. We're working on things like not chewing on furniture (and human fingers) and we know it's just a matter of time before he knows what to chew and what not to. Were also starting puppy training classes next week to help him learn, and to help us know the best way to handle different behavior. He had ONE accident the first night in his new home, but since then has been so good letting us know when he needs to go out, he sits right at the door! Even when he is somewhere new, he goes right to the door.
Arthur definitely gets a lot of his energy out by playing with the other dachshund in the house, Gilligan. Gill is 4 and is SO good and patient with Arthur, he plays along with him most of the time and let's him know when to cool it. They go for walks together at the park sometimes, and Arthur is really doing a great job walking with the leash. By the end of the day, they're usually cuddling right next to each other with us on the couch :)
Ryan and I had been looking around for a few months for a puppy before we discovered Arthur. We both are so happy that we waited and found the perfect addition to the family! ~ Jenna
