Easter photos




Our friend Jack is visiting us from Beijing and he has one of those big cameras that take really professional pictures, it's a Nikon D300. He took some pictures of Nicky and Nora, the best pictures so far in their young lives, they are only 14 months old. The eyes say it all.
Our little Easter bunny killers. One has to remember that they are hounds, their parents are hunting dogs. Right now they want to kill every cat in the neighborhood, pigeons, anything basically which they think it good for hunting, nothing personal, that is what wire hair dachshunds do. Nora's mom at 5 kg, can hunt in a pack wild boars who weigh 60 kg.
We took them to the Via Appia Antica to walk on the historical road just outside the San Sebastiano gate for about 5 km. They walked it all right but when we came home, they were pooped tired and slept like logs.

  1. Very cute pictures(but I'm not sure who is who in them). Any chance of one of the two of them together?
