"C" is for cat...

"D" is for dog...

You've already met my cat.


Now, let me introduce you to another family member...



scribblescrabbleのブログ


Mel is a long-haired miniature ミニチュアダックスDachshund.


My mother-in-law bought her 4 years ago.


Dachshunds are originally from Germanyドイツ

and are extremely popular in Japan.人気


In fact, so popular that between 1998 and 2007


there were more registered Dachshunds


than any other breed at the Japan Kennel Club.



The only problem is that Mel doesn't know any tricks.芸能

No fetch...

No sit...

No lay down...


She just lies on the bed waiting for you to scratch her stomach...



Do you know the saying: "You can't teach an old dog new tricks?"
         ※ 老犬に新しい芸を仕込めない: 鉄は熱いうちに打て


Sometimes you can't teach a new dog, old tricksあせる



※originally...最初は、生まれは、初めは、そもそも、もとは


※tricks... 芸

※register...登録
