Frito feet are back

[Dukey's Mom]

Hi!

I had to bring this back. We had a very Frito experience this morning. I get up early for work and all the kids get up a few minutes later and get shoved out the doggydoor to hopefully do their business outside.

Meanwhile Dukey is still under the covers sawing wood. I went to wake him up this morning and to give him a kiss and OMG, I think he has been saving it up, or he needs a bath, one of the two. Strongest Frito smell ever! Worse than the last one I wrote about!

Made me laugh at all our Frito feet stories though...so any takers?

Sounds (smells?) like you had a "Big Grab" bag experience!

Lucky you. I've only had the snack size. http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/facelick.gif but I'll take what I can get.

I love waking up to double the frito feet now that I finally have a Pair-o-dachs!!!!

[Augie Dog]

My wife did not belive me about the frito feet.

She went out to buy a bag of fritos, got Aug, opened the bag, sniff, lifted a paw, sniff........... OMG! <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0>

She's hooked!<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm12.gif" border=0>

I wish I had a video camera for this!

[Dukey's Mom]

I know what you mean. My husband was slow to come around...One wiff of my Dukey's feet..he was conviced...smell my Sammy, my husband needs a respirator!!

LOL

Andrea!

[Shelbie]

Time to clue in the silly Brit....<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm25.gif" border=0> What are fritos? Are they like Doritos? We want to play too but have nothing to compare....<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm18.gif" border=0> I have a bag of Marks and Spencer tortilla chips which I shall carefully sniff and compare with Shelbie's feet this evening - all in the name of science of course!!

[weenie]

Hi Shelbie,

Fritos are corn chips and they have this wonderful aroma about them when you open up a fresh bag. Not only does Willi also have "Frito Feeties" but he LOVES to eat Fritos as well. It only makes sense<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm42.gif" border=0>

Call me crazy but.....<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm6.gif" border=0>
go to www.fritolay.com (http://www.fritolay.com) and at the top of the page beside the "company info" button is a picture of a Frito.

Hope this helps<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0>

Shelbie, dear, if Fritos are not available in Merry Old England, I am sure many of us will be only to happy to Fed Ex some your way.

[Owen's Mom]

Here's a bitter-sweet Frito Feet story...

Monday night, Owen went to his girlfriend's house for a sleep over, as I was at a Pharma Conference here in San Diego and wouldn't be home before 10 pm. So, I came home to an empty house. In my mailbox, I found a note saying that a very special lady from down the street had passed away the night before. Lois was the dearest woman I've ever known. She rescued greyhounds and was always out walking with Jeffrey and giving treats to the neighborhood dogs and making sure the feral cats had food. Owen would stand under Jeffrey, waiting for crumbs to fall so that he could snarf them up. Lois was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer about 6-8 weeks ago. She was back on the street two weeks later, looking wonderful, treats in hand. It seems that the cancer was very aggressive and went to her lungs, taking her from us very quickly. I'm happy that she didn't suffer a prolonged, painful battle with cancer... But, I will miss her greatly. The hounds will be returned to rescue, as her surviving husband isn't exactly known as a sweet man, and would never do them justice. Lois was in her early 70's.

After reading that Lois had passed, I wanted my little Owen to curl up with, alas he was sleeping at Sophie's house. So, I burried my nose in the couch blanket and took in the residual frito fumes and found great comfort in them. What would I do without my Owen and his comforting Frito feet? <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm36.gif" border=0>

[Tanya]

Amy,
I can so relate to what you are saying. I might have told the story before so overlook me if I have. When I had a miscarriage about 2 years ago, I felt very comforted snuggling next to my Punkin and inhaling the frito fumes. She was a great comfort to me and while Josie has a little frito smell, I really miss the VERY fritoey smell of Punkin.

Oh!!, This is a hoot!!! I always knew I loved the smell of my precious dachsies, but never aquainted it with the aroma of fritos... I went home after reading this, and guess what? You got it, the wonderful smell of corn fritos!! It's wonderful and I'm hooked...<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm26.gif" border=0>

[renee]

I too can't wait to get home and check this out!! Maybe this explains why my 5 year old daughter who is a frito freak loves to hold Lady and Hannah so close to her face!!!http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/silly.gif
Everyone have a great Labor day!

ext</FONT c>http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/cool.gifGlad to be on board. We have 2 dachshie's LOVE is the word. Living without dogs would be hard. Our smooth black and tan standard Fritz has corn chip feet. We thought it was so cool, when we all decided that is what it is. Now really when he goes pee pee I think he steps in it. Would that have something to do with it? Maybe not. Our mini long haired red dachshie just plain smell like a chicken coop on her forehead. Now I know what a chicken coop smells like because I grew up on a farm that had a 2 story chicken house. Wow those were the good old days. But, now I have dachshies. We used to have Registered labs. they are a love too. Maybe someday again???? No too big. Going for the smaller maybe tiny, toy dachshund!!!

THAT is a great picture. Ok, I have two fosters here, and they REEK of Frito's ! I may have to go smell some more feet. Man, that just sounded gross didn't it! HEHE

[loving two dachsie's]

WOW!!! I love the picturehttp://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

I know all to well that Frito smell.

Ginger is like a mini grab bag of Frito's, Bailey on the other hand in a big 20 ouncer size bag. Especially in the mornings, my hubby has a new nickname for Bailey. He calls him:

FRITO BANDITOhttp://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/facelick.gif

Speaking of dip, Personally I like the chili-cheese dip with Frito'shttp://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/lol.gif

[~8DachsieAngels~]

Ok yall i feel like such a outcast with all this talk of frito feet i have been frantically (sp) smelling my dachsies feeties and they dont smell like fritos <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm14.gif" border=0> What has caused this oddity in my dogs Winston has frito breath but no frito feet... OMG im so ashamed...lol

Jen

[Augie Dog]

Linda,

The chilli cheese dip rocks! You gotta try it with the lime tostios!


(Augie loves the chips. He will give the the L@@k if I do not yeild to hiw will!)

[isobelsmom]

Jen? Have you tried sniffing their armpits? No, seriously! No need to be shy! http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/blushie.gif Some Dachsies ooze the Frito smell on different parts of their bodies. Stop laughing! I'm serious. Isobel has Frito Feet and a bit under her arms, and her head smells like "clean" cedar shavings . . don't understand that one, but, hey if it's a part of her I love it.

Don't be upset or think you've been jipped http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/disgust.gif just sniff around (preferably in the privacy of your room . . . with the blinds drawn) and you may find a Frito treasure. <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm35.gif" border=0>

Good luck, check all your puppers and report back your findings!

[~8DachsieAngels~]

Ok i have uh done the smell test <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm6.gif" border=0> Cactus is absolutly frito free <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm31.gif" border=0> Rosie and Sunni have some small odor but smells more of fruit or something NO Fritos ... <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm25.gif" border=0> Winston smell like a mcdonalds cheeseburger (NO comment on that one)<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm36.gif" border=0> BuhBuh was also ixnay on the fritos (getting very discouraged) <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm25.gif" border=0> This brought me down to my babygirl Sassie who always smells like babypowder for some odd reason... i sniffed and sniffed and FINALLY BLAMO underneath her left arm was a slight corn chippy scent... but still not alot! OMG my dogs are outcast what can i do to give them the frito odor!?! http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/think.gif Any ideas?

Jen

[Krista]

I get the frito blast at its strongest after a dachsie nap under a warm blankie...Just catch them still asleep -stick your head under the blankie and inhale deeply. See if that doesn't yield some frito scent. The more toasty warm dachsies -the more pungent the scent.

[isobelsmom]

Jen,

I agree with Krista. Stuff Sassie under a blankie and allow her to ferment for a while and perhaps you can accelerate the Frito odor. <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm29.gif" border=0> Keep trying and don't give up. Please do not feel like your pups will be treated as lepers . . . just remember that you have a variety of smells to draw upon whatever your mood. That's something to be thankful for . . .not ashamed of! <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm12.gif" border=0>

Good luck!

Thanks! He lloks great as wallpaper! My that sounds odd, no?

mary

[Dukey's Mom]

Hey, ya think we should right to Fritolay and demand they put a Dachsie on the Frito's bag??

LOL

Andrea

[isobelsmom]

Think they'd wanna do a "sniff" test first? Ya know, just to make sure the wieners smell like the real thing. I'd pay to see that . . . <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm27.gif" border=0>

mary

[Augie Dog]

<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm35.gif" border=0> ok, we can go to a mall, set up a stand and invite people for a smell test. Blind fold them and have them sniff what is under blanket number one ( a doxie ). Then we hide a bag of fritos under the second blanket. If blanket number one does not give them a big wet kiss<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm28.gif" border=0> I am sure 9 out of 10 people would prefer the delightful aroma of frito feet over the real thing!<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm42.gif" border=0>

[~8DachsieAngels~]

Just one problem with my Lil Sassie shes not into the under the blanket thing maybe thats why her Frito aroma isnt stronger...LOL or perhaps i bathe them too much i have heard that this could be the reason ... They have a bath about once a month except for Winston who has one twice a month because hes a longhair and tends to gather dirt ... occasionally its more often if they roll in something icky (which they tend to like to do very much) <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm43.gif" border=0> You think this could be the problem? <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm18.gif" border=0>

Jen

[Dukey's Mom]

It could be. Dukey reeks when he comes out from under the blanket in the morning. I am chuckling, I just got a visual on setting up a booth..too funny!

Andrea

<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm9.gif" border=0>
I don't think Wotan would let anyone close enough to smell his feeties or his pitties except his mom and dad!

I can see it now- people running away from our booth at the mall, holding their red noses from being pinched by Wotan's nasty little teeth <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm7.gif" border=0>

I got my frito-aroma therapy this morning when I woke Wo up from his couch slumber. Yummmmmm.

[Dukey's Mom]

Can I just tell you how much I need this post right now, and it's humour!!!

After all the horrid things I have been dealing with, this is why I love my kids so much...why, because they reek like Fritos! I am So going to inhale Dukey in the am... I may need a oxygen inhale, but what the heck...I am going for it..Long Live Frito dachsies!!


Andreahttp://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

[Roxane]

This is the very reason why everyone's dachsie needs a slumber sack. If you think the smell is somethin' else from under the bedcovers...It can't compare to the aroma confined within the small space that's Baylea's new "den". It'll knock your socks off and then some!http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/bounce.gif

[twix0699]

HELP!! I can't breathe for laughing so hard. I never equated the smell of my dog with Fritos but I believe you are right. I will have to test her out in the morning. The doxie I had before Twix had the best smelling feet and I thought I was crazy!! When I was preparing to have him put down I cried because I would never smell his feet again (among other reasons)<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm36.gif" border=0> I am so glad to know I am not crazy!

We know how dachsies feel about paper sacks of any kind. They wouldn't last long enough to stuff a dachs into one while trying to huff!<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm9.gif" border=0>

[Dukey's Mom]

With all the rotten stuff I am dealing with lately, my honey and I woke up on our 9th anniversary yesterday morning, and all 6 kids were in bed. Dukey smack in the middle of us, all 10 pounds of him. So the honey goes to greet me and Dukey energes from under the covers, and I start cracking up. The honey says, " what is SO funny", I reply, I am having a Frito attack! I start laughing uncontrollably!

Needless to say, the romance died there!

Oh well, I still got a chuckle! I don't know so much the honey did???

Dachsies don't care, Andrea. If they aren't part of the action~ then there is NO action.

[OneCoolPup]

You're so right about the dachsies smelling like Fritto's. I was sleeping the other morning when my hub layed my sleepy Sadie beside me and the aroma jolted me awake like folgers coffee... all i could think was "they're right, she does smell like fritto's". The hub agrees... he made a really corny joke tonight about the next dachsie we get we should name fritto... that way when we teach him commands we can say "fritto - lay". (how does he come up with these things?!) http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

[Dukey's Mom]

I am cracking up, and believe me, I need it today

Fritto lay ! I love that!

[Hceci]

While reading these messages, I stoped and picked up Toby to smell him. Sure enough his feet do smell like fritos. I thought all you people had gone crazy. But sure enough Toby has frito feet too! http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/bounce.gif

[Wotan, Shakti & Gaudi Inc]

<FONT face="Script MT Bold"><FONT COLOR="Orange">I have read this before..that doxie's smell like Frito's. All I can say from by viewpoint is I love the way all my smooth coated (not the longhairs)dachsies have smelled on their chests and front paws. My husband and I have joked that someone should have a men's cologne that smells like a smooth coated doxies chest as it's a nice smell. To me it doesn't smell like Frito's but then I don't like Frito's and have not eaten or been near any since I was a kid so maybe... Oh and below people mention the reaction of a dachsie to blowing up a paper bag. That's an action that drives our Wotan into a frenzy of barking and excitement. Once you throw the bag down he does wild ripping it into tiny pieces. He also loves to tear apart boxes as you can see.</FONT f></FONT c>

[Dachshundrsq]

I have always said there is NOTHING in the world that compares to the smell of a warm weenie dog. It wasn't until I got to this board that I realized it was the Frito smell. I have had Dachsies all of my life, and all of my life I have been smelling them, especially in the warm places. God I can start at one end and work my way at least halfway to the other end! <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm26.gif" border=0> I never smelled their Feet until I got Freddie. You know how when you give a baby a bath and you just have to kiss their feet while you are getting them dressed. Well I used to do Freddie's exercises and before you know it i am kissing his feet like he is a baby then I get to sniffing and OMG Fritos! So then it became an intoxicating ritual, I swear this is part of the Dachsie Addiction and should definately be part of the 12 step program for Dachsaholics. I definately think the smooths reek more than any other coat and well I don't know but my reds seem to reek the most. Just my observation but perhaps they have always been more of the burrowers of my house. What can i say i am definately addicted to Dachshunds!<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm12.gif" border=0>

[Roobyrocks]

I love this time of year... the air outside is crisp, the smell of fireplaces burning in the neighborhood, the leaves are turning brown... and the very, very best part of fall is the return of Frito Feet!!!

I don't know about ya'll, but Rooby doesn't get real frito-ee during the summer months. Once it starts cooling off and she starts snuggling more, BAM! - frito feet, frito neck, frito pits, and frito chest!! Big time!! My Rooby is the frito-est weiner around. I'm starting to wonder though... if I'm hanging around her while she's frito-ee, then I leave to go somewhere... will I carry the frito scent with me? I bet I do... people probably think, 'hmmm, she smells like a weiner dog'...

[loving two dachsie's]

Just last night my husband said "Boy, Bailey has only been under the covers for a half hour and he is a big bag of Frito' already".

I love the fall too, living in NJ this is a great time of the year. Leave that window open at night. It gets chilly but you have built in foot heaters. And what a better way to sleep but surronded by the smell of Frito's.

Bailey gets major Frito feet, Ginger only gets mini frito feeethttp://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/facelick.gif

Pluto doesn't smell like Fritos to me but he definitely has a scent after a http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/snooze.gif when he been warm and cuddly. When he's laying on me my clothes pick up the scent. <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm28.gif" border=0>
