Bookroo's summary

Pretzel, the longest dachshund in the world, wins admiration everywhere except from Greta, the dachshund next door. When Greta finds herself in a bind, only a very long dog can save the day. Can Pretzel's unique gift win her heart and lead to a happily-ever-after filled with puppies? Discover how being different can be a special strength in this charming tale of love and acceptance.

From the publisher

When he’s fully grown, Pretzel is the longest dachshund in all the world. He easily wins the blue ribbon at the dog show and is admired by everyone–everyone except Greta, the little dachshund across the street. But one day Greta needs rescuing and the dog that can save her must be very, very long.
