One of the most delightful things about owning a small pup (toy breeds, especially!) with a gentle, easy-going temperament is just how you can bring them along with you to places in your backpack!
Not to say that you can’t carry around bigger pups (and make for a much more endearing sight), but we can all agree it is significantly easier to carry a smaller pup!
This Dachshund pup, Columbo, is training for just that – he is learning how to ride in his Mom’s bicycle basket! This is a trick not all pups can learn – they must be reliable enough that the parent won’t have to worry about them leaping out of the basket suddenly. Plus, not all pups like it!
The other thing he is happy to play “fishing”, where his Mom holds up a fishing rod with a toy on it and he leaps for it. Honestly, he is the best catch of the day!
