| George Stephanopoulos with his wiener dog and mutt |
The Hamptons Grind spotted broadcaster and ex-Clinton aide George Stephanopoulos with his two faithful dogs — Daisy the Dachshund and Charlie the terrier mix — outside Starbucks.
It seems Daisy is used to paparazzi and other attention, having appeared on Good Morning America where she also did the sports prediction thing.

Australian PGA player Jason Day doesn’t leave his miniature Dachshund pups, Lola and Charlie, at home when he’s on the road. Nor does he have an entourage to take care of them in a private jet. According to BigPond Sport, “Day and wife Ellie were stuck in the back row of a cramped 57-seat regional jet, their two dachshunds travelling as carry-on in bags under the seat.”
Nor was that the end of the travel problems Day experienced at the PGA Golf Championship at Whistling Straits. Saturday morning, while getting ready to head off to the course, Tiger Woods showed up on the TV, warming up on the range.
Day knew he was on the same score as Woods, which meant he would be teeing off about the same time.Understandably, he panicked.
“We weren’t thinking,” he admitted. “I was in bed watching the golf and all of a sudden I see Tiger.
“I was crapping myself. Ellie was crapping herself even more.”
A few minutes later, Day was giving his Mercedes tournament courtesy car a good workout and in the end made his tee time easily, arriving at the course with 45 minutes to spare.
After shooting a bogey-free 66 to pull within four strokes of the lead, Day was more concerned with his two Dachshunds, Lola and Charlie.
“I’ve left the puppies there for at least eight hours by themselves,” he said. “I’m sure there’s going to be a big smell and some stains.”

Fashion designer Norma Kamali, who’s credited with making sweats fashionable (is that a good thing?) is also a Dachshund owner and technology lover. Given all that, it’s not all that surprising to discover that her wiener dog Zeke has his own blog. A piebald from Louisiana, Zeke is super cute but we’re wondering if his use of all caps is to compensate for his size.

I never knew that they made sharks this small but then I’m an inland city girl from Canada.
The Daily Dachshund found this video at a site called Whales and Wiener Dogs about, you guessed it, whales and wiener dogs. And I thought the Daily Doxie was niche.
