Aunt Heidi \ awnt HY-dee \ Canis familiaris \ Daschund
a.k.a. Dog (pronounced "du-waw-guh")
1. a seemingly unassuming pipsqueak of the Puppus teacuppus category, with the added bonus of being a double-categorized species under Canis grandmaspreferredchild.
2. the factor behind the "Dang people who take their dang dog everywhere," stereotype.
3. big weenie, in both breed and ferocity. Will not go for walks due to possibility of meeting other dogs/squirrels/cats/bugs/scary things. If needs to have air and sun, must be carried protestingly down the street.
4. worst known enemy of Mousecat (see entry under "Sabba's sweet baby kitty"), aside from Vettus stabwithneedleus.
5. cause of Sabba's parents' house being imbued with dog-smell over the holidays.

7. Sabba's second favorite footwarmer and reading buddy.
8. reason behind grandparents' continued good health, thus useful.
9. sort of cute. If you like small dogs. Which Sabba does not, but she supposes she can make an exception for her Aunt.
Comments
Agreed on the toydogs. But doxies are generally more appealing to me (and me schmoops) than most slipperhounds.
True. If I had to make a choice among the puppycuppy bunch (heaven forbid...) it'd be a daschund, corgi, or schnauzer.
"generally housetrained" - heehee!
Suga', I agree. I do not like wawa's one bit, but Elvy can be an exception. :D
Awwww Elvy is no exception to the rule. That's like saying "you're nice for a {insert group of people here}". Chihuahuas are cute. Period. Tell me Rudy isn't super duper prosh. I can't stop looking at his little face.
Come on over to the chihuahuas group and have a look around.
Uh, sure, Ms. Pants. ... :P j/k. Wawas have their moments... how about "Elvy is the cutest of the wawas." Because he is, imho.
