If I had to guess, I’d say Ollie is thankful for…

• electric blankets
• cheese
• puppy pads

Crazy weiner dog people – head over to Target and start digging through the Dollar Spot! My Target only had 2 of these cute little felt bags which are perfect for holiday goodies!

When you have a dog as messy as Ollie, you need a Dirt Devil. Who knew a 12 pound weiner dog could cause so much destruction?

There’s always strings from ropes, feathers from pillows, crumbs from treats, and the occasional excited piddle when we have a visitor that needs to be cleaned up, so the Dirt Devil Holiday Gift Guide (pdf) has a few things that I’m interested in.

Not only are there great Dirt Devil suggestions for him, her, and families, there are tips on over 300 ways to save with online shopping, including where to find discount codes, how to score free shipping, who to follow on Twitter for deals, and where to scope out the best bargains for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

So, along with the Easy Steam Deluxe to clean up after Ollie, you can also find where to buy me something sparkly. You have buy something sparkly to soften the blow of buying someone a household appliance for Christmas!

The Dirt Devil Holiday Gift Guide (pdf) really is a complete holiday gift guide.

If that cartoon isn’t exactly like Ollie, then I don’t know what is.

Every morning, I get up, make myself breakfast, and at the exact moment that the bacon comes out of the microwave, Ollie magically appears.

Ditto for anything out of the refrigerator.

And cabinet.

And any bags rustling in the general direction of the kitchen.

Dachshunds have a tendency to show up in the strangest places. They are funny little creatures so they get roped into all kinds of silly situations.

Like a racy comic book series in The Daily Mirror during wartime Britain featuring Fritz & Jane – who apparently had a knack of misplacing her clothing, much to the British soldier’s chagrin, I’m sure.

Chrystabel Leighton-Porter was the inspiration for Jane and was known during her time as Britain’s first sex bomb.

Apparently a photoshoot was required to accurately portray her likeness alongside Fritz.

Weird.
