"A dog just has to accept humans the way they are-they'll never fully understand things that we dogs know instinctively " Sarge the precocious dachshund continues the chronicle of his own unpredictable dawg's life, along with his zany family of beloved humans and assorted animals. He travels out west to Arizona with his doxie pal Duke (and a couple of his humans, of course), sightseeing along the way in a motor home. He encounters an Elvis impersonator in Memphis, admires cowboys and cattle across Texas, travels through desert in New Mexico, and enjoys mouthwatering regional food along the way. He'll have readers wanting to join in it all with him The Grand Canyon, which Sarge dubs as "the biggest ditch I've ever seen," provides even more adventure to his trip of a lifetime. Duke his protege, the conniving cats (remember the Fuzz Brothers?), and Gizmo the chatty cockatiel-who insists on calling Sarge cutie-will have readers chuckling at their comical shenanigans. This keen-nosed doxie practically lives for family holidays and cookouts, all of which include FOOD, the ultimate for chow hounds like Sarge (and Papa Duke always shares some of his FOOD). In fact, since his beloved Papa understands dawgs so completely, Sarge bestows the distinctive title of honorary dawg upon Papa, an impressive tribute from a dachshund. Affectionately written by Sarge in his very own entertaining doxie style, Dachshunds Forever reveals his clever wit, keen intelligence, and refreshing perspective on life. Another heartwarming tale of family, joy, good food, and unconditional love, Sarge's story will bring warmth and smiles to readers of all ages."
