(NASHVILLE)--Country music's David Frizzell and his missus, Jo, have welcomed a new addition to the family; namely, Clawson Frizzell, a Corgi/Dachshund mix, who joins older sister, Chili, a Chow mix.

While appearing recently at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society convention in Nashville, along with guitar virtuoso and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Nokie Edwards, the award-winning singer-turned-author Frizzell reportedly was sporting numerous scratches and bite marks on his arms, thanks to the new pup.

Regarding the rambunctious and lovable pup, Frizzell told a fan, “Man, that guy’s a fireball and he’s got a mouthful of needles for teeth!”
