Telly the Blue




For the last two years I've been following the story of this little guy, Telly -a blue dachshund.
I saw him initially on this Daschund Rescue site.
Blue is a dilute color, a defect. Blue dachshunds should not be bred as it leads to baldness and sometimes blindness. They almost never have a normal life span. Telly is mostly bald - hence his name, after Telly Sevalis.

He was adopted last October and now lives with 3 other dachshunds and 2 humans in Nebraska. His humans maintain this site about him.
