God made a little dachsie, to brighten up our day. He took a bit of sunshine, laughter, love and play, and rolled it up in a sausage shape, just right for a hug, with bright eyes, full of mischief, set in its little mug. With little paws a pattering, to take it here and there, and a cold wet nose, But then He thought, "Oh, what about the hair? Shall I make it long and silky, or wiry, that's so sweet, or make it simple, and have it smooth and satiny and neat? And what about the color, how can I pick one? Shall I make it black, or red, or brown, or dappled, just for fun?" He pondered while He made the world, and all creatures great and small, and then the answer came to Him, of course! I'll make them all!! So remember, that a dachshund is special from above, His coat of many colors is a sign of God's great Love.
