More beady eyes just for you

Meet Rufus. He has just joined dachshunds in London after his mum and dad Caroline and John Wilson came a searching for a pup within our club.

The couple put a great deal of time and effort (as should we all) into searching for their perfect pup family member.

Last month they joined in the fun at the monthly club meet up to talk to other members about recommended breeders and characteristics and decided a dachshund was going to be the breed of choice!

Little Rufus has already had his formal initiation into the brotherhood pack of fellow London slinky mutts and so we wish Ru Ru many more meets - Welcome little one!

The Great London dachshund dash Sunday 26th September

The Time has come, dachshund lovers, to unite with our favourite breed and show London what we are all about!

The dachshunds in London official race day will commence at 1.30pm at Regents Park, beside the Honest Sausage Cafe on Sunday 26th September. The event is sponsored by Sniffles Dog Spa and Paws and Claws and we will all be raising money for Dog AID.

Club members are asked to turn up in fancy dress and those of you who have a club t-shirt please wear it as the event will be filmed for a dogumentary for SKY airing in November -so we want shiny coats and well turned out paws for the day! Those who make the extra effort can collect a super dooper doggy goodie bag from me.

The day will be filled with doggy treats and prizes to be won. Here is a quick teaser of whats on...

Races – start 2.30pm

Two heats will take place, one for miniatures and one for tweenies/standards. The first three winners of each race will win a prize and the final six will enter a ‘finale’ race.

Sausage Eating – 3.30pm

Again this will be split into dog size and there will be one prize awarded for the fastest sausage eater in each category!
