Woof and good morning, humans! I'm Alma, your trusted dachshund, and I have something to tell you: Your love of coffee is a true mystery to me. As soon as you get up in the morning, you toddle into the kitchen and mutter something like, "Nothing works without coffee." Then that loud gurgling-gurgling-gurgling of your coffee machine starts, and you're clutching your cup like a holy grail.
Coffee in the morning – a mystery for us dogs
This is incomprehensible to me. I get up, stretch, wag my tail, and am ready for the day. Maybe I sniff a little, look out the window, or take a walk around the garden – done! Why you humans need this magic bean for that remains a mystery to me.
But okay, I don't want to be unfair. I've noticed how you suddenly become friendlier after the first cup. Your eyes open, you talk to me more, and sometimes that's the moment when you say, "Come on, Alma, let's go for a walk!" So if coffee helps me get out of bed earlier, I'm fine with it.
More coffee, more energy? Not with you!
Another phenomenon: You drink coffee throughout the day – sometimes with a contented sigh, sometimes hectically between two meetings. But honestly: The energy you get from it is just an illusion. I see you after the third cup – still tired!
That would never happen to us dogs. When we want to recharge our batteries, we take a nap. Close our eyes for a moment, take a deep breath, and hey presto, we're refreshed again. Maybe you should try that instead of overloading yourself with coffee.
Coffee and style – this is where I come in
Now I have to give you a little dachshund compliment. Your coffee looks truly exquisite from such a beautiful mug—and I'm not just saying that because Alma and Gustl have such gorgeous dog mugs . Imagine: starting your day with a sip of coffee from a mug emblazoned with my charming face! Isn't that doubly motivating?
I mean, if you're going to have to have these beans, at least do it with style.
A dachshund tip for humans: Relax!
Finally, a word of advice: Coffee or no coffee, you don't always have to rush around. Enjoy your morning in peace, like I do. Breathe in the fresh air, let the sun shine on your face, and look forward to the day – with or without coffee.
So, dear humans, drink your coffee (from the best cup, of course) and get ready for whatever comes your way. And don't forget: after coffee, it's time for dog adventures—life's true source of energy!
Woofy greetings,
your Alma
