(Ottawa Dog of the Week for January 3rd, 2011)
“Paul is an almost 5 year old dachshund who was adopted from a woman who had 4 kids and was going back to work. He is so docile and loving, you never have to look far for him because he is usually glued to my side. He is the little spoon to my big spoon when bed time rolls around. We call him the pig because he grunts when we play.” – Paul’s Mom, Lily.
Paul’s brother is Oscar the Pekingese/Terrier Mix
I got this email from a co-worker today. Her brother-in-law’s Doxie has adopted an orphaned kitten!
“Heidi is my son’s sausage dog, very lovable, and loves sleeping with you. Slept with me when I was there. There is a wild cat that had kittens and all of them very died except this little one in the photos. The mother abandoned it, and my son brought it home. They fed the little kitten out of an eye dropper, and after it perked up a bit, Heidi took over. She can’t nurse it, but is trying to do everything else. It is a lovely sight.” ~ Halina (Heidi’s Grandma)
Do you have a dashing dachshund? If so, the Ottawa 67′s want to see them in action! During the 2nd intermission at the 67′s game on October 5th (2pm puck drop), the pups will take centre stage in an exciting Wiener Dog Race. Participants (human, of course) will receive 2 free tickets to the game. The dogs need only to be ready to run; no special training is required.
We have provided a dog/owner section in the building so you can sit and enjoy the game with your pup!
We are looking forward to seeing everyone this year, and will have great prizing for the top 3 finishers, as well as prizes for all the dogs that participate.
Interested owners please contact Vanessa Richardson at 613-232-6767 ext. 257 or by e-mail for more information or to sign up.

“Benson, aka: Ben, Benny, Mr. B…. is a year old Boston Terrier Dachshund mix. Like his breeding, Benson is unique, a dog with a character all his own. Benson enjoys basking in the sun, playing with his favourite Orbee ball, and going for adventures in the woods with his mom. More recently Benson has been enjoying his time at The Dog House where he has met lots of new friends both canine and human.” – Benson’s mom, Lorian

Liz Bradley is a dog lover who lives in Ottawa, Ontario with her husband, Thomas, and their three little girls, Paddington, Corduroy and Wellington. Paddington is a Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie) and was born in September 2006 - she's a ball of energy and both Thomas and Liz love her to bits. Corduroy is a Malshi (Maltese/Shih Tzu) and was born in January 2008 - she is bold, determined and will lick you constantly if you let her. Wellington, our newest addition, is a one-year-old ShihTzu/Yorkie mix who we rescued in March from Animatch. She is full of energy and her favourite things are bananas, her Kong Wubba toy and curling up on her humans for a nap.
Liz has many sides to her including, photographer and graphic designer... ...read more
