The Story of Me, Puddles



Well ya sees, it all started withs My Girl...her longed fur a puppy of her very own...hers wanted a little girl puppy. So, Mr. Dad being da sucker dat he is gave into her wishes…afters a gazillion conversations explaining what would bes expected of hers, explaining da care and work of a puppy, and blah, blah, blah. Then of course, mum had to put her two cents in and said da new doggie hads to be a rescue. There was nevers any talk bout what breed of puppy cuz that was just a given and not open fur discussion, a dachshund it had to be.
Once everything was sealed and dealed withs Mr. Dad they began da search through rescues and shelters. As my luck would haves it a lot of places wouldn’t adopt out to a family with a small child, another dog, or they be living outside da rescue radius and yada yada. They searched far and wide at shelters with no doxies to be found (mum is a little breed bias). So it was withs a heavy heart mom relinquished da plan of a rescue and called da breeder where Albert came from. And guess what? Okays, I tell ya. Mr. Breeder informed mum he had ONE female puppy left. That’s right, I was da last of my litter mates to go home. Go figure. I just haves no idea why no buddy wanted me. Maybe it was da evil eye I already possessed as a wee one. Oh well, who cares, I’m glad it worked out da way it did.

Okays, ya'll still withs me? Ya'll wakes up, I'm in da middle of my story. Okays, dat betters. I continue nows.

So anyways, Mr. Breeder told me I would be going off to lives withs a little hooman girl. Oh yea, jack pot! My new girl and mum showed up almost on time. Yep, purty obvious da new mum don't haves a knack fur directions....ha, and they wanted a doxie girl. (Rule #1: if you can't follow directions, don't get a doxie girl Puddles) So they finally gets to meet me and they starts all dis squeeling and carrying on bouts my sweetness, and my cuteness, and my littleness. But then, lawd help me, mum sits down withs Mr. Breeder and they start talking, and talking, and talking. It was very boring, mind you. They all be talking bouts shots, AKC papers, and pedigree charts, things I could cares less bouts. Finally, I'm like," Hey, new mum; can we be going nows? I wants to go check out my new crib". Yea, dat finally gots her rolling and I said adios to Mr. Breeder. And dat my furiends is da furst step in training your hoomans...lets them know who da boss is.

Once I got to my new castle home I met Brudder Albert fur da furst time. He was sooooo skeered of me, I don’t thinks he really knew what I was though. I only weighed bout 2 pounds and didn’t haves much hairs either. I was kinda bald on da top. He kepts running away from me and would crawl up in mum’s lap (dork). So anyways, that’s my story and I haves been purty thankful to comes lives withs my peoples and to haves my very own hooman girl, a brudder and now a sissy. I lives a good life.



Until next time....
Peace Out,
Puddles

Mack said...

What a sweet gotcha story!

Remington said...

Great story Puddles! I don't think you were the last to go because no one wanted you -- it was because they were SO fussy about where YOU were going to go (cause you are SO special) that it took a little longer to find your new mommy! That's what I think!

Frankie Furter and Ernie said...

Hummmm and all this time I just thought you were pooped out on a fence post. Who knew.
Sooo did they let you do this as pawt of your INTERVENTION THERAPY?
I am sure it helped you to think back on all that grrreat stuffs.
Darn girrrrl I hope you know just how lucky you are to have scored such a grrrereat family.
I have seen your little girrl and she is BEAUTIFUL and a grrreat laundry basket motor.
How soon are they gonna let you out???
You be sure to tell your peeps to have a Super Duper Thanksgiving. I hope you enjoy the PARADE and all the Turkey you can scarf down.
PeeS you did a fantastic job of holding out until just the perfect peeps came along. I'm just sayin.

Well, I am so glad you ended up with your family - imagine if you ended up living with someone who didn't blog or let you drink beer or eat cheetos! It was fate.

You were one of the cutest puppies ever!!!

Your pal, Pip

P.S: my post is up today, too.

Bruschi said...

What a great story Puddles! What a tiny adorable little bit of a thing you were! I am shocked that you were the last of the litter to be picked though.....perhaps your personality required only the best humans to serve you and treat you like the queen that you are! You truly are lucky to have such a great home! Happy Thanksgiving!

Corbin said...

Hello? Hello??? What? Did someone say something??? I can't hear ANYTHING! The momma screeched SO loud when she saw you as a puppy... I think there's permanent damage. Anyway... What a great story! I'm so glad you found such a sweet little girl in your wonderful home! I totally think you held out and peed on anyone else that looked at you... because you knew your home was comin' just a bit late! ;-) And, just think... you'd have a whole life without ME if you didn't go to your momma!

Levi said...

Oh Puddles...that is the sweetest story ever. Sometimes it's good to think outside da box. If your mamma never did then she wouldn't have found you. The bestest thing is to know the breeder (STOP PUPPY MILLS).
It was sooo nice to hear your story!! And I love seeing the little puddles pics, BOL!

I believes dat everyting worked out jus da way it was supposed to. Day say no one wanted you, but you was really jus waiting for da right home and hoomans to come along. And day did. Dat's the same way it happened for my brudder, Max (DaOdderWeenie) and me. Wee's all in da homes where we supposed to be. Albert was such a cute pup too. He waited for your Mom's to pick him up.

Puddles, I don't think there's any doubt that you were destined to go live with the family you have and to become a star of the internet, kind of like me! I thought your story was quite charming, too. I know how you love your girl!

I can't believe that you were the last one! The people who got your littermates must have been blind!

EXCELLENT story! You? The last one left? Wow. I find that hard to believe! (Heehee. I'm kidding. You know I love you, Puddles!) My Mom is pretty breed biased, too - something about liking the not-shedding thing... Anyhoo, great story!! I hope you get lots of turkey tomorrow!

Miss Puddles! I loved reading the adoption stories of your most tubular family, but yours is the best. You were just the most cutest thing ever. You sometimes child stars don't retain their looks when they grow up. Not you! You just keep getting better and better.

Thanks for telling us your sweet story, Puddles. You are so lucky to have been found by your family! That's something to be thankful for.

You were such a cute puppy (and you're still cute now!).

Anonymous said...

I know why nobuddy else picked you, Puddles! Cuz you were MEANT to be with your mom and your girl! Can you imagine if you had gone to live with somebuddy else? I bets they wouldn't even lets you get on the computer and write your BLOG! And then we never woulda met. And then my world would just not be as interesting or as funny.

Whew! I'm SURE glad it all worked out the way it did!

Wiggles & wags,

Well told, Puddles. Start the training right away or the humans think they can get away with anything.
