Hipster Makeover

To complete his hipster makeover, a hat was needed, and to add a certain German flair, Westley decided to use a German dog for a hat. Clearly German Shepherds and German Shorthairs were too large–the Dachshund puppy seemed about right and seemed to enjoy the attention. And predictably, the girls loved it, but there was still a little issue with bathroom training . . .

When Westley picked up his new pet {Brownie} from the pet adoption center, they said it had been neutered, was current on shots and ready for a new home.  They had seemed a bit vague on exact breed of dog he might be.  Attempts at training had proved problematic; Brownie would not respond to simple commands like “Come,”  “Sit,” or “Stay”,  and he was having a real problem with house training.  Then there was the matter of the missing cat . . .

Bad Reception

Snuffy the Wonderdog had had it with his cable provider–price hikes, bad service, having to pay for dozens of channels he didn’t want in order to get a few that he did.  He watched a video on YouTube and learned how to make his own dish but seemed to be having troubles getting it aligned right for good reception . . .
