Felix, Norton & Chamois June 2006 Canine Angel's

We are all so flattered! My two boys are wire haired miniature dachshunds, Norton (black & tan) and Felix (dapple & tan), born 8/10/04 and 8/12/04. Their mothers are sisters, so they are cousins; they’ve been together since they were 4 weeks old. When I met with the breeder to get one puppy, I couldn’t leave the other behind! They both are incredibly fun and full of mischief!! Chamois is a long haired mini dachshund and belongs to my mother. Although a bit bigger than my two, Chamois was born 3 months later, in November of 2004. He and my two boys get along famously. Chamois, named because he looks like the car rag (according to my father, who collects antique cars), has a great disposition, very loving but still naughty, but not quite as much as my two (which we love about them). Felix is a “squeaky toy” addict, and will squeak the squeaker for hours. Norton loves to bring sticks and leaves into the house that he finds in the garden, he almost can’t come inside if he doesn’t have something in his mouth. Chamois insists on pulling all the fluff out of any stuffed toy, leaving behind deflated “carcasses” everywhere! I love to share my boys because I think they are some of the cutest dogs ever! Of course, I am biased … Alex M., Wilmington, DE
