Hello everyone
My brothers and I Have a bit of a sticky problem, and maybe someone out there can give us some advice. Our Mum has lost over 30lbs in weight since she started her most recent diet. This has meant that she has eaten less of the things we love the best…. like cheese and liver sausage….so we are missing out on these delights. All we have had has been our doggy treats, and somehow they are not as nice as human food, are they? Then we read that Kira has to lose some weight before she takes on motherhood….. and now our Mum has decided that we should help Kira by slimming down a bit ourselves. Luckily I am one of those chaps that can eat a mountain of cheese and not put on an ounce, so I won’t have to join my brother in the dachsie diet, but it looks like my treats ration is to be reduced, so as not to be unfair to my brothers.
What is a chap to do? No cheese has been hard enough, but no treats either? And what of poor Anton? So what if he’s a bit tubby and weighs a ton? Winter is coming and he needs a bit of insulation, doesn’t he? Hughie and Otto also have a bit of insulation, but nothing to worry about, so they are very upset about the reduction in chicken jerky (supplies are running low…. hint, hint) and doggy sausages.
Any advice on how we can survive this terrible treatment is most welcome.

We will give you some GREAT advice. STAY AWAY from Dr. Michelle. She puts her toe on the scale so she can tell Daddy Chuck to give us less kibble. What is it with these hoomans and weight. Don’t they know that we dacshies MUST eat. I will see what I can do about finding a bit of cheese to post your way.
Your sisters and brothers in suffering….

Luckily, me is not dealing with this problem. Here is my advice: you tell your mum that she is withering away and it’s not healthy for her to lose so much weight so fast. Tell her dat “baby steps” is da way to handle these things and a wittle cheese never hurt anyone!
Dat’s me bestest advice.
Me will think of you wit every bite of cheese I take,
