show us yer wienies part 2...

Updated December 18_05:

Here are some more wienies from far and wide. To add your wienie dog drawing: post your wienie on your blog and please let us know in the comments on this post, so we can copy your dog and put it up here.

By the way, there seems to be many ways to (miss) spell dachsund daschund dashound and the American Kennel Club spelling: dachshund. So we've got all kinds of spellings on this post. No biggy as far as I'm concerned. As well, I misspelled the word 'wiener' and I've corrected the spelling most places except in the comments.

From the delightful Michael Schlingmann of DRAWNOGRAPHY fame: Dachshund (or Dackel for short) is indeed the correct spelling, Dachs being the german word for Badger and hund being the German word for hound. Bread originally with short enough legs to run at speed through a badgers home and flush them out towards the hunters.

According to the Kennel Club: The Dachshund temperament 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.

Where'd Smook's post go? Is he suffering from a case of weinie envy?

Well, well, I can finally help out with my extended knowlege of the german language.
Dachshund (or Dackel for schort) is indeed the correct spelling, Dachs being the german word for Badger and hund being the german word for hound. Bread originally with short enough legs to run at speed through a badgers home and flush them out towards the hunters. A nasty job but I guess someone had to do it...

Hi Steve, Mike's got his weinie back up.

Elliot. Just sent you an email.

Alina, Thanks. And we'd love to see your weinie!

Felixsputnik. Much thanks! We will add your info to the post. Guess that sort of lets you off the hook in the weinie department. But wouldn't say no to one of yours...
