I guess you want to know about my dogs since I've been raving about what you should do with yours.  So, here we go.
  I have a miniature dachshund (wiener dog).  He is black and tan and has health problems.  His name is Harry Potter.  Harry is addicted to food.  We keep this box of his food and treats and we tell him to wait, but as soon as we bring the biscuit out of the box, he tries to grab it.  Harry barks at dogs much bigger than him and scares away cats that are double him in size.
    I also have a beagle named Mylo.  He is very cute and we got him when he was 1 from the beagle rescue.  He is addicted to food too.  He is basically the same as Harry except he howls, and can throw his own toys.
