Ode to Rebeccah
December 15, 2005
Rebeccah (or ‘Bec’ for short, and she also answered to the rattle of a cracker box) was the first Rootietoot Household Weinerdog.
She had the personality of Queen Victoria: Imperious with Very Short Legs
If she was irritated with you, she’d squint and snort through her generously sized nose.
She was Sweet Daddio’s girl, and if she ever obeyed anyone, she’d obey him. That’s a baby Rosie on his shoulder.
If she didn’t think you were looking, she’d roll Rosie around like a squeak toy.
Then she’d let Rosie tumble her.
That was Rebeccah, Queen of the Backyard.
I just couldn’t get to the camera in time.

I really don’t think there is anything sillier than a dachshund humping something.
Even funnier is a conga line of dachshunds humping, one after the other, banging away unsatisfactorily, since they’re all girls.
