Nigel's mom says: Nigel "Brutus" was born on August 22, 2006, and was ironically named. Every time I take him on a walk, I always hear at least once, "Dangerous dog you got there. Better keep him off the streets!" He's the most attention-stealing, playful, loyal dog I've ever come in contact with. When you sit down on the couch, he will literally jump up on your lap and get up in your face--pressing his puppy fuzzed chest fur against your face, licking you until your face is pruned. He has two sisters, Pickles the wise and oldest, and Peanut the silly playmate. Nigel loves to run around and play in the snow, and to play tag. He also loves sleeping for hours in any position imaginable--as long as he is near me or one of my immediate family members. We couldn't be any happier to have him in our family.







You're so cute with that little face. And don't pay attention to the silly remarks of ignorant people. Many biscuits
Oh baby you are the bestest, cutest most beautiful baby ever. I want to cuddle you so bad. All the hugs and kisses in the world. Have the longest most wonderful life Nigel. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I have never seen a long haired duchshund before and man, is he the cutest!!! Love the fuzz, love the look in his eyes (he's totally harmless - he only has love!), love his ears and oh my word, his poses! :D
Happy 2008 to all of you!
omg this is the cutest dog in the world i think that if that puppy does not get 11 then this is the most dumb site ever
What a beautiful little dog. I saw one in Germany last year called Seppel who was rust brown and I fell in love!
i didnt know which picture to fave because your little one is so cute in all of them. hes actually smiling.. im in love... a thousand biscuits for your puppy!
What a sweetheart. I would just love to hold and cuddle him, and feel that warm soft body to my face and kiss him. xxxooo
sorry about that i meant the second to last one where he is sitting by the door. they say dogs cant smile but i beg to differ and here is one who does. my little cockapoo Baba smiles as well. anyway, i tried to change the fave photo i chose to the one where i think he is smiling the most.... very sweet puppy. i wish you many happy years together....
"Visions of sugar plums dancin' in my dreams ! I think I like this house and these tall creatures ! I'm soooooooooooo good lookin' "
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz... ...."
ADORAPUPPLE! OK, now I have to start persuading the husband that another dog would be a great idea. Just a small one! What a beautiful puppy (and I'm loving Brutus as a name too, even if it is a nickname).
It sure looks like someone is very happy with their new digs. What a doll baby. Congrats on your newest family member. Biscuits galore.
Such a good looking dog! I have a perfect companion for him!
Honey, our cream doxie, was featured here on Daily Puppy last year.

All the pictures are adorable, but you can really see he is a peaceful and happy guy here. Lucky you. I am familiar with the breed and how loyal they are. Give him lots of TLC likes he gives to you. God Bless you all....
The pitchre won't show but the one where he's just a handful is so darn cute. So lucky you are to have him.
Nigel, you are such a handsom fellow!! Our Dorie is 2 years older, but you have the same habits she does. She can't control her licker, either ;-) . Your family is very lucky to have you. Doxie's are the best!! They are full of love and love everybody. From a fellow Doxie mom to another, we wish you lots of fun filled years, good health, and from our critter gang, lots of belly rubs, chases, fetches, and tugs of war!!!!
Handsome doggie -- and soooo very intimidating :-) Enjoy your lovely little puppy and the rest of the gang and have a great 2008!!! He is one of the prettiest long-hair doxies I have ever seen. Lots of extra pets from Houston.
We love doxies too! I love the picture with him in the sink...he looks so relaxed! You're Brutus looks a lot like our Abigail-Eve who was featured on August 4th 2007. Our doxie has the light tan coloring also!

Check out her pictures and let me know if you think they look like brother/sister....
Give Brutus a big pat on the tummy for us. He's adorable!

Look at those eyelashes... I'm so jealous! That is one giant ball of cute. Belly rubs to you, Mr. Nigel Brutus!
Gosh this puppy is cute. I have 2 large Bernese Mtn Dogs and if I ever adopted a small dog, it would be a dog just like Nigel. Happy New Year and long lives to all.
What a sweet little dog you have! Nigel, you are simply scrumptous and I'm sure you have some reallygood dog sugars! Happy New Year to you and your family, and many blessed years of health and life.
Nigel, you are just so darn cute! Ever vigilant watching out the window - oh my, does it get any cuter than that?! But then, I'm a complete sucker for dachshunds having loved my Maggie dog for nearly 15 years. Enjoy every minute with Nigel and his sisters.
Ahhh- so sweet! Nigel Brutus would fit in nicely with my wiener pack, Weasel, Pooter, Jack and Rudy (longhair black and tan, short hair black and tan, longhair red, and dapple with a blue eye!) Nigel Brutus would add a beautiful new color to the pack! And, dont they have so much fun when they have brothers and sisters to play with? He looks incredibly happy!! Have fun!
[color=orange]Oh Nigel you are sooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I was there to give you a million kisses!!! :) You are precious!
Many kisses, hugs and biscuits to you!
Happy 2008 and best wishes always!!![/color]

Many kisses, hugs and biscuits to you!
Happy 2008 and best wishes always!!!
As a Doxie fan myself, I LOVE Nigel!!! I think the picture of Nigel asleep on the sofa with his little ear spread out, and his paws up, is sooooo sweet!! Puppies sleep sooo cute!!! Nigel is a beauty, and I too love the little "smile" on that sweet face....and I also agree, dogs DO have many expressions,...smiling is definitely one of them! Tons of biscuits to Nigel, and a very Happy New Year to Nigel and his family!!!!!
Oh my gosh! I want this little guy!! He is soooo adorable! Perfect first picture to put up after the cute little onesies... Thank you for sharing your over-the-top cute puppy with everyone!
What a darling puppy! Many years ago I had a West Highland White Terrier and lived in a neighborhood where most people had very large dogs that were muzzled! I used to get the same kind of comments about my "ferocious dog" and would respond with: "Actually she's a Doberman Pinscher disguised in a Westie outfit". It was hard to pick a favorite picture. Wishing you many happy years together
Nigel is such a DOLL!!!! I want him.. I have a black and tan doxie and I just lover her. I love the coloring on Nigel. He is sooooo cute! 11 zillion biscuits for Brutus :) xxxooooo
Thank all of you SOOO MUCHH!!! Nigel is my pup, and I loved all of your comments about him. I was so excited when I found out he was going to be on this site. My mom and I are all telling him what a superstar he is, and we KNOW it will go to his head! Thanks again guys!
The side view is terrific - love the wild fur on his ears. My shepherd-basset mix has the same ears! What a cute dog!!
He's adorablicious! The eyelashes! He's killing me with cute. He really is just gorgeous, thanks for sharing him with us. Many happy years together to you.
what a precious dog...he is so tiny! i just want to give him a big hug!!! Many wishes...have a GREAT 2008
I love creams; I love long-haired doxies; and I love this little boy of fluff. They are 10 lbs. of ove in a 5 lb sausage.
What a sweetie....hugs and kisses and lots of belly rubs for this little guy! Let sleeping dogs lie...because they are just so cute like this!
Your baby boy is beyond cute! I want to cuddle him as he looks so soft and sweet! Congrats on picking a great dog! Enjoy every minute. He is gorgeous!
What a cutie! Nigel seems like such a sweet puppy. How could anyone thinks he is dangerous? I am glad you have such a wonderful puppy. I hope you have many happy and healthy years together! Sloppy puppy kisses from my little girl Daphne.
awww, what a sweet puppy. It is obvious that he? is a long hair doxie. Beautiful dog. I have a doxie/ beagle mix who is short haired, but i love his face with the dachshund markings. And, the photography is great.
Nigel you are a cutie pie and it is clear that you simply do not take a bad picture.LOL! They are so expressive but i finally picked this one of him looking out the window. We had doxies several years ago and the one Tiny she was clearly my dog and loved looking out the window especially in the car and she to had an extremely fast tongue. Enjoy your baby mine was 17 years old when she moved on to puppy dog heaven.
What a darling little guy! I bet he is the light of the house. I wish I could give him apet and a hug.
Bravery can come in very small packages. My doxie Lady was very protective of her litter. She tried to defend our house years ago when 2 burglars broke in. They were able to to block her into a corner with the sofa, but she put up a good fight until then. Luckily she was not seriously injured when they kicked her.
He is a great dog! Protect his back/cartilage by eliminating jumping (up or down) and stairs. These guys are suseptible to serious back injuries. Our 3 year old recently had successful surgery for two herniated disks. Good luck.
Holy cow, I am overwhelmed with all the cuteness! The sink pictures are omg, so ADORABLE! Wuf you much lil one!
btw, I'd give you 1,000,000,000,000 x infinity biscuits if I could!
Soooooo cute!!!! He looks just my Doxie-Spaniel Gobo! Ironically Gobo (formerly named Pretzel) had siblings named Popcorn, Potato, Pancake and Pickles, born in August of 2007. Small world. :)
Okay, this is the cutest puppy I have ever seen!! Every single photo is adorable. 11 biscuits for Nigel and his pretty blonde fur!
Excuuuuuse me!!! Have you ever heard of KNOCKING first??? Honestly. Now go away, I'm busy.
(Nigel Brutus is too cute for words)
Love the way he's perched up there with his wee paw sticking out. He's a smashing-looking little guy for sure.
He's such a sweet little boy. I loved all the pics. Dachshunds are so smart. Enjoy this Sweet baby for many years.
I can't pick a picture cause it keeps takin me to another page !! grr.. But any way I don't need to cause they are all sooo cute..You did a great write up on your little guy.. He is a Sweetie pie...
Tooo cute..11+++biscuits
Such a cutie! And saves money, too, with the sink doubling as a bed. Happy new year to everyone, especially to you Nigel. xoxo
I love this breed they are not afraid of anything my little himie chased a black bear out of camp one year till he got high centred on a log, couldn't lift his back legs up after his back surgery 2,400.00 worth and worth every penny ,there loving and loyal, I've raised all kinds of dog and timber wolfs and love them all but dachshunds have my heart and you have and little adorable one their love him and he will love you back ten fold I promise I have three of them if I could I would have more, god bless and have a long life, the wienerdog man.
Nigel, you are adorable! I could just kiss your little nose all day long! Dachshunds are one of my favorite types of dogs! I wish you and your family a long, happy life with lots of biscuits!
I just think he is the cuttest thing. My you bring as much love to your family and mine has to me. Bring on the biscuits !!!
My god. He has to be the cutest thing ever on the planet! I want to steal him, I admit it! ;-)
Excellent set of pictures. Every one gave me a cute overload! :-D
