"Hey, Sheree, I've got a surprise for you. A Christmas one."

"A Christmas surprise? Well, isn't it a little bit early to spring something like that on me?"

"Oh, c'mon. You know you're curious. Besides, they won't fit in your stocking. Well, actually, they might--but they won't hold still long enough, that's for sure. That's why I'm gonna give 'em to you early."

"Won't hold still...what in the world are you talking about?"

"Just come with me."

"Oh, you didn't?! The two rescue Dachshunds?"

"You took such a shine to the little fellahs when we were volunteering at the shelter last week. And I could tell that you were really reluctant to leave them at the end of the day. I figured you were in love, and wanted to give them a good home."

"Well, look at them; they're so cute! I can't thank you enough! Gosh, what should I name the little sweeties?"

"How about Wiener and Schnitzel?"

"Wiseguy. How about Dasher and Dancer?"
