So for XMas this year I ended up getting Kat a Mini Dachshund.  I had planned on meeting up with the breeder to have a look at the puppies she had to see if this is what I was looking for.  She had driven from Utah with the puppies and upon seeing them I was sold on the spot.  I originally was going to try to get her a few days before XMas and giving her a bit early, but since I couldn’t resist I got it to her a bit earlier than planned.  Kat was pretty much in shock when I came back home and placed a puppy on the couch next to her.
So far she’s pretty awesome, besides the whole house training and crying though the night hehe
