Though there eyeballs sometimes pop out.. so... uh... watch out for that. It's pretty disturbing when it happens.

And he had the worst smell... no amount of cleaning or grooming or vet visits could get rid of it. I guess some doggies have naturally bad BO, too.

hee ! a friend of mine also had one of those growing up, and like yours he was sweet but astoundingly stupid. she would tell us stories about the idiotic things he would do that would make us roll on the floor laughing, but i sure wouldn't want to live with a dog like that, he got into so much trouble !
my parents always had stray dogs of various extractions when i was a kid. one of them was far too smart for anyone's good (i'm quite sure she was capable of taking over the world and plotting mass destruction if she decided to). she was probably some sort of dachsund mix (she looked like a dachsund with long yellow fur like a golden retriever) but we couldn't be sure since we found her running down the street, lost, and nobody ever claimed her. she was like an evil mastermind hiding behind a sweet demeanor ; everybody loved her, but you had to keep an eye on her...
