"There had been talk in our family of getting a ‘sensible dog’ this time...But after a period of uncertainty and wasted motion my wife suddenly exclaimed one evening, ‘Oh, let’s just get a dachshund!"  E.B.White

E.B. White and I share a fascination and affection for dachshunds. After more than a year of planning and scrimping I brought home my own pup -- Moxie -- just before Christmas. 

This dachshund pull toy mirrors my own dachshund's markings. I even traced Moxie's ears for this piece. Eyes are glass. The ears are leather as is the rolled and sewn tail. This dog wears a real leather collar made just for the piece.

The base is made from old wooden crates and is vinegar grained to give a folk appearance of rosewood. On the underside of the base I've affixed an early Moxie soda label to honor my pup's namesake.

This piece is lovingly rubbed and worn to give the appearance of age and waxed to a velvety luster.

There may be a black and tan version available. Please ask if interested.
