Unrelated Dachshund Note

According to Wikipedia, "H. L. Mencken said that, 'A dachshund is a half-dog high and a dog-and-a-half long.'"

The entry also reads, "According to the American Kennel Club’s breed standards, 'The dachshund is clever, lively and courageous to the point of rashness, persevering in above and below ground work, with all the senses well-developed. Any display of shyness is a serious fault.' Their temperament and body language give the impression that they do not know or care about their relatively small and comical stature."

*sigh* I miss my funny-looking Lydia.
