Owner 'Accidentally' Gets Dachshund His Very Own Dog With Hilarious Results

Many dachshund owners know what it's like to deal with a clingy dog, but one owner has discovered the perfect way to help out her Velcro dog—by getting him his own puppy.

Having Cuda the 5-year-old dachshund was almost perfect for Texas resident Rachel Lee but there's no denying that he's a Velcro dog who loves being around his humans. No matter where Lee went, Cuda would immediately follow, so she had the idea of getting him a little brother who could always keep him company.

Lee didn't hesitate to get Cuda his own dachshund brother, whom she named Soly, and the duo instantly hit it off. There was no sibling rivalry between these two, as Lee told Newsweek that it's been hugely "positive for Cuda" to have his little best friend by his side.

"I wasn't worried about getting a second dog because we had a 10-year-old dachshund before, and Cuda loved his older brother. But I knew he'd enjoy having a sibling close to his age who was in the same energy level as him," Lee said.

"I knew Cuda liked having a sibling, so I felt confident that getting another dog would be positive. Cuda took to Soly pretty quickly, and within a day they were already playing together."

Getting a second dog isn't always easy, but Lee couldn't have been happier with how things went. Now, her two dachshunds "are very bonded," and they do everything from play, snooze, and eat together.

Since welcoming Soly into the family two years ago, Lee has loved documenting their brotherly friendship on TikTok (@houseofsausage). Social media users can't get enough of the adorable duo, as one clip showing how close they are has gained over 1.9 million views and more than 300,000 likes.

Layered over the footage of Soly and Cuda, the caption jokes: "you accidentally get your Velcro dog his own Velcro dog."

By posting on social media, Lee likes to remind people that dogs can be unpredictable, but getting a puppy for her Velcro dachshund has certainly worked out for the best.

She told Newsweek: "Anytime I share videos highlighting their relationship, people ask how me it is to get a second dog. I always tell them that not every dog will like having a sibling, and it's a big change so you should put a lot of thought into it before you do it.

"Ultimately, I knew enough about Cuda to know adding Soly to the family would be great, and it's not just been hugely positive for Cuda, but for all of us."

With over 1,400 comments on the video, many TikTok users have praised the precious bond between the two dachshunds, while others shared their own experiences with a clingy dog.

One comment reads: "Dachshunds should always come in twos."

Another person wrote: "I cannot deal with this much cute."

A third TikTok user responded: "Dachshunds are adorable by themselves but the more the better in so many ways."
