Any body have a weiner dog?

JoeSPB is pretty much dead on with his comments.
They are fearless, let a big dog come into their territory and they will be all over it. They Just don't realize they might die as a result. They are extremely smart and loving. As mentioned before, they can get a paralyzed back. They don't need to jump off sofa, bed, etc.
Before I moved here to Tx and have neighbors across the road, I lived way out where nothing could bother mine. But my little buddy Rd Dog, jumped off the sofa one time too many. Came home one day to find him dragging his hind end. I bought him a $300 set of doggie wheels, but he hated them, and was always getting caught in a fence somewhere and I was off looking for them. I kept is legs bandaged and cleaned every day. I could not bear to put him down for 9 months. He still loved life, we had a special bond, I swear he could read my mind. No joke. Finally took him to the vet and put him to sleep. I swear he knew what was coming. It has been a year and a half and I miss him every single day.
I still say they are wonderful little rascals, but they do have their quirks. But so do I !!!!!!
