meet … The Crushinator!

We call her Crush for short.
She’s a miniature dachshund puppy we adopted this week. Her former family couldn’t take care of her any longer, so she came home with us.

And immediately started wearing sweaters.

pattern: improvised
yarn: Fox Hop 2ply handspun mohair & wool
[raveled]
We love Crush bunches already, and there will obviously be many more sweaters and pictures here in the future. For now, if you like frolicking puppies, please enjoy these 24 seconds of AWESOME.

What a sweet dog, I am so glad she adopted you! That sweater - that photo - I think it needs to be a holiday card!

I have a *crush* on your new puppy!
She’s adorable and her sweater fits her perfectly. Next up a matching scarf?

Beautiful puppy! I hope she’s keeping her teeth out of that sweater since she looks like she’ll need it.

She’s adorable! Congrats!!

What a little sweetheart! Lucky girl to come live with you and have handmade sweaters. Adopted pets are so wonderful.

GAH! So cute.
November 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 am
Congratulations! She is adorable!
We rescued a small standard dachshund, Fred, a couple years ago and it was one of the best decisions we have made. We call him our little German furnace because we put him down at the bottom of the bed under the covers (dachshunds love to burrow) and he keeps our feet warm all winter log!
Have a great time!

November 23rd, 2009 at 3:39 pm

Goodness she’s beautiful! I am so jealous. I wanna dachshund.
*pouts*

Enjoy! I have two miniatures male doxies but only one will wear sweaters (the other tries to rip them off his body!). I sent you my website if you want to see my guys…
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:34 pm
Oh, what a FACE! She’s adorable.
December 11th, 2009 at 11:23 pm
omg. she is just stupid cute!!
December 15th, 2009 at 3:37 am
What a sweetie! She is adorable. I have a 2-year-old miniature doxie myself, and I can honestly say that doxies are the best; you get a big dog in a small package.
I wish you many happy moments with this little one.
December 15th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
I have a long-haired miniature dachshund named, Max! Get ready for HUGE personality.
I’ve never owned a smarter, funnier, more charming dog in my life. Instant love!
December 15th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
She is such a beautiful puppy. I love the way she models your sweaters. She knows they are just for her.
December 27th, 2009 at 11:06 pm
There are no letters that can spell out the noise that I just made at seeing the adorableness of this puppy in its sweater!!
January 20th, 2010 at 2:51 pm
