Dachshund Parade

Posted on April 27, 2008April 27, 2008 by Hijiri

I heard that there is a Dachshund Parade twice a year in Washington Square in NYC, one in April and one in October, from this dachshund lover when I was out with Maia. One just happened this weekend and we were so there with Maia. I guess we didn’t get there early so by that time we got there, lots of them went home or something, but there were still many dachshunds in the park! It was so funny. Maia had a blast, of course, and we had fun, too! We were inspired by a couple of dachshunds in Hays Valley where we used to live and that’s why we got one, but we had no idea how many of them are in NYC and how much people love them. Enjoy the pictures!

Maia met her new friend, Billie the Pug this weekend. Billie’s mom, Mia and I have been working together and she’s been telling me about the Prospect Park – we took a walk in the other side of the park before, but it is a huge park and we entered from 3 blocks away from our apartment this time.

Billie and Maia:

There is a horse riding area!

And there is a dog beach here. Maia wasn’t interested in the water so much…

Billie:

We sat on the grass for a while – it was fun!

They were so cute together.

2 Months Later…

It has been 2 months since Maia came. She is growing so much and she is changing so much, it is so visible! What a fun 2 months, it was hard at first, but she is just so sweet and brings us such a joy!

She eats very well:
