Daisy the Dachshund, Original One-of-a-kind Dog Doll Figurine by Max Bailey

Daisy the Dachshund, Original One-of-a-kind Dog Doll Figurine by Max BaileyIt’s very easy to guess Daisy’s favorite flower. Daisies grow all around her cottage, and on summer mornings you may see her walking about admiring each and every one of them as they bend and tilt in the gentle breeze.

Daisy, of course, was right. She loves everybody, and everybody loves her.
