Wiener dogs in St. Paddy's attire (Photos)

Please don't paint your wiener green. A lot of people do that to make their Dachshunds tiny leprechauns. But, it's not worth it.

Noted Dachshund photographer Johnny Ortez-Tibbels, who just published the book "102 Dachshunds," shared some of his wiener dogs in St. Paddy's garb. Click here for more about his book.

He writes in his Wiener Dog column:

In anticipation for the upcoming St. Patrick’s Day festivities (this Sunday) Rufus and Emily don their “Pet Me I’m Irish” apparel in hopes of avoiding those pinches.
