Riley the Dachshund Opens His Stocking

Riley, our favorite dachshund, waits in agony for his Christmas stocking.

Rascal our 17 year old Dachshund loves Christmas! I belive she is the most excited of all of us. She will search under the tree for her presents. We have been blessed to have such a sweet member of our family.

[@hossesarse]

Ain't nothing sweeter than a high-miles dog with a dignified salt-n-pepper face.

[@mikebensch2869]

Hello, The Christmas video of Riley at 8 years of age was wonderful. I am so sorry to hear about his passing. My spoiled dachshund is 16 years old; 3 dental and 1 spine surgery and he continues to rock my world. I can't imagine life without him. Thank you again for sharing such a beautiful and heartfelt video of Riley. MB-

[@amandarioux167]

Things I will never get tired of: videos of dogs reacting to their humans coming home from a long trip, and dogs opening presents.

Nothing better than a doggie who knows he's loved...............................

[@Xcorgi]

It's amazing how energetic this older dog is. May it be around for many many more years!

[@juliewright4667]

My miniature dachshund is an absolute genius when it comes to tracking and obtaining food. We live around the corner from an italian restaurant, and he figured out how to sneak out of the house and get into the restaurant.

[@juliewright4667]

Yep Dobber's a Wiley one. The shop owners are good sports though.

[@missyb9438]

julie wright I hope you stopped that from happening anymore. Could get run over or stolen!!!

[@barrez9307]

I'm sorry I never saw these videos before. .. I hope Riley had a great life and you have wonderful memories. THIS brought me joy. Thank you and Blessings ✨

[@bobcarp1239]

I come back now and then just to see Riley..... Love You, Riley!

[@ALSomthin]

Thank you for showing us Riley !

[@sully173]

This is one of my favorite videos ever !!!!

[@Monker4444]

This is super cute! He's so smart! He understood completely what the girl was asking as they went from stocking to stocking, and he was clever enough to know none of them were his. He's so obedient! This is a great little video, especially with the cute little music in the background!

[@ellensc-hawley3720]

what a happy little fellow, he felt love after all

[@georgettecosenza3701]

He's so handsome and my Schotzie looks just like him with the gray and the long ears.

[@fruitloop008]

He's so adorable!!

[@elisekearns7023]

Love it!! Have had mini doxies for 48 years. My favorite breed of course. Have one 15 yr old now named Baxter. Had his parents too. 🐾⛄

[@chewie2055]

They are addicting….in 37 yrs of marriage we are on our 12 and13 doxie…….we always had them in pairs…..every coat and color you could think of….we took rescue puppies…that had reasons for not breeding….

[@rfreiner]

Look just like my Molly (rip). She was the best dog I ever had.

[@Princessalexia777]

May This boy open all the stockings he wants in Heaven

[@raymondrodriguez8859]

Riley looks a lot like my Dachshund, Chelsea!!! Almost a twin to Riley!! Chelsea gets REALLY excited at Christmas, and does a little dance with her front paws, waiting for her presents to be opened. She always LOVES what Sammie Claws brings her..Nummies, of course!!

[@bradwilliams1691]

My recently deceased Maltese Shih Tzu, Mitzi used to do the same thing. Every Christmas, she would rummage through the various presents under the tree &, as sure as ten dimes will buy you a dollar - she would drag out her present - without fail. RIP Mitzi 2005 - 2021 Gone but not forgotten & much loved.

[@donnamay-brunet8947]

Now that's a GREAT Doxie!!!! Love, Love ,love RILEY!!!!

[@orcaartist]

What a sweet old face. My Barkley used to do the same thing with his Christmas stocking. He knew every year when we put it up and which one was his hanging on the mantle. Even after he went blind he knew one was up there for him. So cute.

[@jawoody9745]

Oh, you Beautiful Boy!!! You are so handsome and happy!!

[@dax8753]

Never tire of watching this my favourite you tube video

[@MrTmoney12889]

Riley is still in great shape i had a doxie that passed away last wednesday and Pretzel was 12 and a half. Its nice to see a dog like that in great shape for such an old age.

[@ForeverNarutoUzumaki]

To me Dachshunds are the silliest and most curious dogs in the world. I have one and so far it's been the best 11 years of my life. :)

[@whiteboy7931]

My dachshund looks very similar. No white in the face. She "LOVES" her stuffed toys. Will greet me at the door with a toy in her mouth and will carry it with her for a long time. Even barks with it still in her mouth. Great video. I love dogs!

[@iPinoyBaller]

His face is so cute at the end when he's satisfied. :D

[@Janis396]

This is one of the best Doxie videos I have ever seen....Riley is beyond adorable!!

[@GAbug81]

We lost our Snorkie 2 years ago he was 19 1/2. You never get over it and videos are always bitter sweet.

[@rickylucc]

I got My dachshund for Christmas when was 5 years old. She lived until I finished college and Just passed away this year at over 16.5 years old. and enjoyed her life hunting lizards and wagging her tail until the last day.

[@radhasen.animalwelfare.5644]

Cute doggy! My dog would stick his nose into all the shopping bags till he would find his packet of chewsticks then yank it out and run off!😊

[@jeshkam]

Was that a doxie too?

[@LarLar427]

Aww! What a cutie! Lil frosty face 😊

[@fatboyslimsmom1964]

So precious. Thanks for sharing your baby.

[@janicesullivan8942]

Such a patient fellow, the excitement is too much to bear.

[@suzieQcatlady]

this was done so nicely.....i love how you treat your dashie ......

[@JILL0704USA]

Such a precious fur baby 😌💕.

[@JRR0013]

Who's a spoiled boy? So cute! Perfect music - Riley is great!

[@pedrogudino1133]

Riley picked me up tonight. Thank you.

[@ojoj626]

i think these dogs are the smartest most lovable dogs in the world they all have a good personality

[@HugeGene]

Hugs and kisses from me to Riley. He's precious!!

[@Zallein093]

My dachshund is the same way with presents he's worse than a little kid waiting to open them :) so sweet hope he has many years to come!

[@cynthiamartin2619]

Too cute ! What a doll 🐶

[@saxbandmom1313]

that was adorable . we just lost our 13 yr old doxie on new years of this year . give riley hugs from us .

[@callmecoco6993]

I have a 16 year old Dachshund named Riley! Best (and smartest dog I've ever met)

[@Waterwithhopefour]

Thank you for sharing such a sweet video. ❤

[@Arsonfairie]

My furbaby Sammie gets presents from Santa Paws every year. She seems to have the most fun out of the entire family. Then she conks out haha. Riley is so adorable and reminds me of her, with the distinguished greying and barely there patience.

[@Arzoo520]

Adorable! ❤️

[@CaptinHoot51]

Adorable Riley!

[@prasannagodiyal6736]

I love you Riley

[@davidtaylorpe]

What a great video! This is getting me into the spirit, along with our miniature doxies, the dappled Dasher and our little sable, Penny. Thanks

[@srblackston]

So precious! My baby "cries" like that when he wants something. Is so pathetic that you just feel so bad for them, you give into whatever they want. LOL!

[@melisswoog]

I miss my little doxie so much...their personalities are the best!

[@JBM425]

What a puppers! He reminds me of my late, great doxie BFF, Benny.

[@hulagirl2008]

Oh my gosh our little doxie loves Christmas too!! She's even broke into the closet and got them all out before! We cant put any presents out until Christmas eve night or she will open them all!!! We love Riley!!!!! TOO CUTE!! glad to know ours isnt the only one!

[@DaRealLee]

12 years later and this is still great

[@Hutch09092000]

Gahhh looks exactly like my dachshund back home, I'm away at college these videos cheer me up!

[@sotoklau]

We have a daschund too and OMG best dogs ever so sweet. Smart no other dog compares. he knows tons of tricks and understands everything tht happens around him.

[@deniseeulert2503]

This just came up on my feed. Riley looks just like my Mauser. The only difference is that Mauser's face is just a little lighter. Riley looks adorable.

[@alee1853]

Love it, he's sooo cute

[@ellierfromthebronx4531]

Aw what a sweet doggy.

[@TR5T]

Hey you had 13.5 wonderful funny years communicating with another species. THAT IS AWESOME. My two former stray cats will eventually go but I've lost cats before, it's now with all the talking, wake up nudges, lap sitting, slipping under my hand for a pet, that's the building of memories many are too selfish to acquire. Get another soon if you haven't already. Plenty of love needed out there.

[@mattdidit84]

Super Cute! I love my dachshunds and I love how all of them have such different characteristics.

[@soulgirl66]

Awww...look at that sad face.."Awww c'mon, Dad! I want my presents!" Sweet doxie!

[@Johncarson9113]

I love it when he wines for his present, bless that dogs heart. The thing that really hurts the most for any dog owner is that there is no immitation, copy or an exact personality that will come close to the dog you loved, thats what upsest me, each dog is one of a kind, each one has its own little tricks, spots, bark, habbits. There is no other dog like your own dog i always say. Just like there is no place like home. I dread the day I have to say bye to my dog, she has cancer so it sucks =(

[@danakrause4139]

This reminds me of my Julius. Thank you for posting. R.I.P. Riley.

[@taebaker5518]

Great video. Riley is very well trained for leaving the stockings on the hearth. Ours would opened them all. Thanks for sharing. I know it's impossible...but try to keep him from jumping off the bed. We just had back surgery done on one of ours for doing the same thing.

[@greenboy9943]

So wholesome. Thank you

[@jpaleblue]

What a sweet boy.

[@Saartje05]

PRESENTS!!! Presents presents PRESENTS!!!! Really cute dachs.

[@vanlachance]

What a sweetie!

[@Leww32]

Very funny I must say as my very own Riley the Dachsund, who looked almost exactly like this one, did the same thing with his Christmas stocking!! Unfortunately our sweet boy died in July after 14 years. We miss him. Thanks for posting!

[@lydonreference507]

Lovely dachshund

[@BlackFox0911]

My little choxie (chiweenie) does the EXACT same thing! She knows what's hers and makes no small scene tearing into stuff. Dachshunds are most adorable dogs!

[@kbjracewalk]

Riley is so adorable!

[@Moreththerogue]

The ending shot of a satisfied Riley is incredibly cute.

[@TheBlondebabe19]

this put a HUGE smile on my face

[@svenini17]

He is so cute!! I love how dachshunds look when they're old. They have white beards :)

[@Saartje05]

I have dachsies for many years already and the only one with health problems was a rescue dachs. The rest were are healthy without problems. The last one died at the age of almost 17 years old. I have two now. A five year old and 8 months old.

[@CryBlueofZ]

What an adorable spoiled baby

[@kavaldzhia]

I love the ending and music ! Thank you for posting !

[@Jup126]

He is so adorable.

[@suparttt]

I'm sad because his eyes are so cute!

[@jamesberwick2210]

I gave my Doxie's Christmas stockings. once it was empty, they'd bring the stocking over wanting me to fill it back up.

[@crystalrelic_art]

My Dachshund sounds just like him when she cries and whines

[@CryBlueofZ]

Nothings better the a happy dachshund

[@Janie1102]

omg... too cute.... cant handle cuteness....

[@XAdioskMFDM]

Oh my gosh what a sweet little guy! I love the worried faces weeny dogs make!

[@taniamorse85]

"Come on, let me have it!...Yay, there it is!...Ah, what a good day!" So cute! Riley is such a cute dog!

[@kokoduckcow1289]

AWWW!!!!! thts so adorable hha he is so cute when he wined i was like about to cry

[@toddviv]

Hes a lovely little boy,small in stature but enourmous in cuteness. I would like to give him a christmas bone

[@miapasag8895]

you're adorable riley

[@beavis1513]

Who the Hell gave this video a thumbs down!?!?!?!?

[@thundercloud47]

Charles Smith Someone who neither likes or understands the dachshund breed. I used to dislike them. I missed out on many years of owning an awesome breed with that attitude. I did not own one until late in life when a mini longhair all at once decided I was going to be her new owner in spite of the fact my neighbor owned her at the time. I now own the best dog I have ever owned in my life.

[@thundercloud47]

thundercloud47 One of the first things I discovered about mine is that she understood the concept of gifts. I'd owned smart dogs in the past but never one that understood gifts.

[@beavis1513]

We have a mini black and tan dapple male that we wouldn't sell for a million bucks!!

[@jawoody9745]

+Charles Smith I would like to know that as well. I would hand them their bag of coal. This dog is too sweet to give a "thumbs down."

[@beavis1513]

Riley is so sweet! Plus the lady is wearing Michigan apparel. Go Wolverines!!!

[@alyssagriffin5781]

Mu dachshund LOVES christmas presents!

[@carobeniteztv]

Lovely creature, those eyes are to melt for...

[@GizmoRob176]

What a good boy!

[@CarrieBHS]

Dachshunds are the absolute BEST!

[@pursehappygal]

I didn't realize he was whining at the beginning...too cute! I love his face at the end.

[@DENNISLOPEZINC]

This Video of Riley is adorable!
