Dachshund Spring Fiesta 2008 aka Dachshund Festival 2008 aka Dachshund Parade 2008.

His neighbor leads the way bringing Erik & his wife Joan along with her dachshund Keira and her North Star trainee, the Golden Retriever, “Charlie.” Washington Square, New York City. Organized by the Dachshund Friendship Club. (sometimes misspelled Eric Paulson)







This is fantastic. We blogged it at ‘The Long and Short of it All’ today. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful film.
i love it!! a perfect New York festival and a great video.
If more people were “dog people”, the world would be a better place.
Thanks, Joan. (and thanks to you too, Erik, for whatever you did)
Nice job Erik. Cool to shoot and edit something, eh? Good camera work and nice editing. Looks like it was a very fun day.
Fun video. I bet your back hurt from shooting all those low angles. I wonder what all the dogs were thinking, probably something like: Hey I like the colors your Human is wearing or Hey, your Human has been around another dog recently. ;P
Makes me so sad that I had to miss this year’s April gathering! Oh well, there’s always October!
This really was such a nice afternoon in the park! I really got the “flavor” of New York, and would have loved to be there with my own two little doxies. Nice job.
Erik Paulsen reaches to a new all time low! Low to the ground that is. Nice job Erik. Loved the bull dog and your reaction to it.
loves this video. great shots of hotdogs! what a sight to see! 4 stars!
What a great escape to a beautiful day in the park–I’ll keep it with me for a long time! Perfect weather, great street jazz, adorable dogs and their people–a wonderful collage of some of the best things about NYC!
Mahalo, Erik!
Also enjoyed the Government Yule home page. Nice job!
Erik,
As usual very creative shots and very nice work on editting. Pleasure to watch. Videos like this make you think of the song: “what a wonderfull world”.
great video
love the editing, love the dogs, however I will play this on my system tonight when i have a real sound system, I’m here at ABC and the speakers aren’t working mike
very charming, and the natural sounds and music make it a well told ny story, last frame is the best, check out your web site later, maybe catch you at work to comment further, mike inglesh

Yes, on April 25th. Same place. Starts at noon.
