Maggie's Corner: Shopping For Dachshunds

Like most girls, your Long and Short of it All hostess 'Maggie' loves to shop, and she has been busy scouring magazines and the internet for the newest designs as well as some classic Dachshund gifts that you might like for your beloved Dachshund, or something special that makes your house a home. Above, 'Sammy' likes to eat out of this modern hanging Dachshund feeder. Measuring in at 11 5/8 "H x 13 1/8"W x 7 1/8"D, it features removable stainless bowls resting on a rubber ring for silent dining. It'll cost you $175 at These Creatures.

Go ahead, you KNOW you want it. There's really not a better gift for the Dachshund Lover than these Dachshund cake/pie servers. Have your cake and eat it too, then flip over your server to display it as a dachshund sculpture and wow all your friends. Designed in France by Laurent Mouveau, we can testify that these are quality sturdy pieces, and will brighten up any kitchen. Multiple designs are available at Pylones, or save a few bucks and support Dachshund rescue by purchasing one at DRNA.

It's no secret that Maggie has a crush on 'Baxter,' the handsome red smooth over at kalyxcornucopia, and yesterday he was proudly displaying his new Dachshund doormat he bought at Pier 1. Maggie says: A boy who shops, be still my aching heart! It doesn't look like this design is available online, but their doormats run about $16.95.

Heading over to the Wonderful World of Dachshunds at Etsy, send secret love letters to your sweetie-pie on this hand screen printed card available for $3.50 at Orange Twist's shop.

And while you're at Etsy, stick one of these long prints in your shopping cart. Measuring in at 19" x 10.5," the vivid colors and almost human-like facial characteristics can be yours for $45 at chetart's shop.

Maggie's Motto: Spend, Spend, Spend!
