Free to a good home: small, loud dog

Illustration by Tara Hardy

Got separation anxiety? We do. So does this red smooth Dachshund named 'Beth,' who hails from Red Deer, Alberta, Canada. Her human offers up a nice short story about life after adopting her from a family who no longer had time for her. Here's an excerpt:

She's cute as hell, sleek and black as a seal with caramel markings. Her brown eyes apologize for her mishaps and look at us with unadulterated love. She has a crooked tail because she was the runt of the litter, but we don't mind and she doesn't notice. It works like a metronome for a particularly lively ditty.

Check it out at The Globe And Mail.
