PS. I love dogs! keep the photos coming :)

I once owned a Basset Hound named Flash. Its favorite postition was asleep on the couch with all four legs up in the air. My mother-in-law always thought it needed to wear fruites. (underwear)

Nice dogs StampStudy! Our fluff Molly (previously shown in the Canada Picture Postage thread).

They are the only thing that keep me sane sometimes!

Some more from GB

I have never seen that set from Transkei before. Of course I want the dachshund stamp!

I had two miniature dachshunds when I lived in South Africa and they look exactly like the ones on the Transkei stamp. I will see if I have any spare sets of the set over the weekend.
