Lucy & Lincoln Colson
Our Lucyboots, (Red) Queen of the pillow mountain, sassy perpetual 13 year old has made her way over the Rainbow Bridge. Lucy was rescued from Kenton County Shelter - Almost 17 years of love and big personality is hard to say goodbye to. Thank you Luce for getting me through most of my adult life. You were (are) so loved. I will miss your silky ears, and your give-no-shits attitude. It is something I should try and emulate. Thank you sweet girl. Lincoln (Black and Tan) came into our lives as a curious young man 4 years ago. He explored, patrolled, and helped to balance the sense of order around our house. Lincoln was adopted into our family after having been fostered by All American Dachshund Rescue (AADR). They informed us that his previous parents had passed away. Because he was the only male dog in a (now) 3 dog household, he aligned well with Michael (dad) and was often referred to as “Mr. Buddy” or “Mr. Buddy Pants”. Lincoln’s favorite place in the world was cuddled up next to you under a blanket. We came to call his blanket; his woobie. And in the later years we created a special place for him in the kitchen, underneath the built-in desk, called “his woobie”. While only our 2nd L (of three “L” doxies) and our first male Dachshund, Lincoln has made a huge impact on our lives. Thank you to the AADR team for allowing him to be a part of our lives. We love you Lincoln, Mr. Buddy Pants, and hope that you reunite with your family and Lucy across the Rainbow Bridge.

Abby RIB sweet girl
I saw Abby on the All American Dachshund Rescue site. She was a 14-year-old senior dog looking for a home. I’m not sure if I found her or if she found me. I’m so blessed that I took a chance on Abby, and had her with me for more than five years. Abby, you made us so happy! Thank you for blessing our family! The Fink family

Rusty Hice
In loving memory of Rusty #9, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge on April 16, 2021, at home in the sunshine of the backyard surrounded by his loving family and friend Kathy. Happy Birthday Dearest Rusty! Today (5/4/2021) you would have been 14 years young. We miss you so very much our little man. How truly blessed and grateful we are to have had you in our lives. You were so loved my little monkey, and will be held in our hearts forever. We had the great honor and privilege of being Rusty’s adopted parents for two wonderful years. Rusty was the best friend anyone could ever ask for. He brought joy and happiness to every day that we shared together. Rusty was so full of life and wanted to be included in everything that we did. He would get so excited when we put his harness on for the next big adventure. He loved car rides, exploring local parks, walking trails, and going for hikes in the woods. Rusty was the sweetest boy I’ve ever known. He loved snuggling under blankets and cuddling with his loved ones and anybody that would share a lap with him. To learn more about our very special boy, please see: https://www.lapoflove.com/pet-memorial/14174 Special thanks to everyone at AADR for everything that you do for these special Dachshunds, who bring such joy to our lives and teach us so much. A very special thank you to foster mom, Deanna, who brought Rusty into our lives. We cannot imagine life without him. Deana, your love of these dogs is an inspiration and your AADR adoption bios bring them to life. Thank you for all that you do! -Jennifer and Aaron Hice

Lilly - RIP
Lilly was a Beautiful sweet loving dog. She loved her family dearly and her Brother Logan misses her so much. We adopted her when she was 1 years old.

Never met such a kind sweet soul. We love you and adore you sweet Lilly. Miss you everyday. Thank you for being part of our family. April 16, 2021 - RIP my love. -Bobbie Modie & Family

Ozzy Whiteman Arlington, VA...RIP
Adopted February 2018. Passed peacefully on April 13, 2021. As Ozzy died I thought about the words from a poem... “Cut the leash that holds me here, dear friend, and let me run”... Run Ozzy run! We are so glad you were ours; so grateful for your sweet soul. We are sad beyond words.
