American Horror Story
Yours truly does not own a television set, so naturally I can be a tad bit behind in the cultural zeitgeist. As such, I had just started watching American Horror Story via Netflix. A few episodes into Season 1, I was pleased when I saw the character played by Jessica Lange walking two little dachshunds, which seemed to be one red and a black-and-tan smooth-haired ones.
So far I’ve only seen her once walking with the dogs, and very briefly, too. Hopefully the two little darlings will make more appearance in future episodes and seasons. Let’s see if they are real dachshunds or ghost dogs, as other characters in the series turn out to be. What do you think?

Dachshunds are not strangers to magazine covers. Here are some publications that I have found thus far; and as I find more, I shall add them to the gallery. These pictures are lifted from the Art.com site. All of them are available for purchase at that website.

Snow Cone and the Seven Dwarfs
A chance meeting with a stranger who was walking his seven dachshunds along the Omotesando avenue in Tokyo. This is an old film taken in 2007 with a Japanese smartphone video-camera of the time, so please forgive the poor quality. It is best viewed in small screen.
