I can see that in a dachshund...our Jenny is the most affectionate pup we've ever had...and if there were to be another pup in our lives (which is highly doubtful), I'd pick a doxie again....they're so caring and nurturing....
Anyway...hope you enjoy this...!

That is totally amazing, and so darned CUTE! So sweet when this happens!

I wanna hold that little piggy!

[Lynn49]

Isn't that piggy the cutest?! It doesn't even look real, it's to pink and shiny!
But, ah...those doxie pups...I remember then Jenny was that small........those wrinkly little legs.....

What a sweet story! A life saved by a doxxie! He'll think he's a dog when it comes time to mate, probably since he "imprinted" on a dog. The whole story is very heart-warming. What dedication to help this little being along! Thanks for posting, Lynn!

[Lynn49]

You're more than welcome, Avon....'cept...now I want a pink piggy, too.....

[Natalka]

My husband just smirks and guffaws anytime I squeal with delight when I see a cute little baby piggy on tv, and when make a comment that I'd love to at least hold one. Because he grew up on a 'farm', he just doesn't see them as cute at all.... gah, so jaded!

[Lynn49]

Sigh...yes, Natalka, I can understand what you mean about guys not understanding our love of any critters at all. Do you remember the Telus commercial with the piggy? SO cute!
They have a way with using critters in their commercials that make them so endearing.
Along with a piggy, I also want a meercat. What do you think my chances are?

Oh the pig looks like a stuffed toy. Too cute!

[Natalka]

I loved the spotted piggy Telus used - in fact, on our boxes which hold our Christmas stuff, I taped on his little pics that came out that year.



Lynn, a meerkat might be harder to wrangle! Hmmm.... go on holiday to South Africa, bring a big suitcase to smuggle meerkat back in.... it's probably doable!

[Lynn49]

Oh I would if I could, Natalka...but we're leaving for Florida next week...think I could smuggle one out of Busch Gardens?

The Detroit Zoo has a special meerkat display. A couple of summers ago we went to the zoo with my nephew and they had meerkat stuffed animals on sale - really cute!

Would you settle for a ferret? I can smuggle out my sisters for you. She's a sweety.

That is most adorable. The pig looks so cute with the doggies.

Honey, I'd jump at the chance! I petted one once in the PetSmart here a few weeks ago...omg, those cute faces! I could have squeezed it all day!
Unfortunately, hubby only tolerates our Jenny (don't get me wrong, he plays with her, and is the walker and pooper-picker-upper), but one critter is quite enough for him. Left to my own devices, I'd be the crazy dog lady!...or...Critter lady!
