Zestril

Zestril's mom honored his passing through a donation in his name to the fund for Sparky, a dog needing surgery. She sent this note about her beloved boy.

"I [donated] to this fund via Paypal but I guess I missed the place where I could make the gift in memory of our beloved little Zestril, who graced our life for more than 12 years and who we had to put to sleep on January 18 following a diagnosis of end-stage pancreatic cancer. The little guy never complained and was the joy of our lives. I have attached a picture of Zestril (he's the one in the middle with the shawl over his head) with his devoted brother Zoloft, who is left to miss his best friend. Thank you for everything you do for our weiner dogs."

Hunter
RIP Jan 4th 2016...we are so sorry Hunter that we could not fix you...enjoy all the doggie at the bridge that you will meet and can play with your are now finally free of your demon's.

Scotty
Scotty's mom Cathy told us that he crossed the bridge on Wednesday, 4 November 2015. She wrote, "I adopted my Scotty 7 1/2 years ago and it has been a pleasure that they would let me be his mom. Scotty would have been 18 years old in January but with him not doing good and getting worse I had to let him go yesterday. My big boy is now over the Rainbow Bridge and running with no pain. I know some people don't understand how this hurts so much for a loss but we as Dachshund Lovers know their part of our family and will be missed. Mommy will always have you in her heart Scotty love you!

Heidi
RIP sweet Heidi...Ricky and Debbie Dodd....Our search for a wire-haired dachshund lead us to Heidi, or Heidi Pooh as she was affectionately known. Heidi joined our family on January 26, 2003, thus our group of hounds became the Three Musketeers. She loved to be the navigator on trips and happily played the parts of Aunt Samantha to Rickey's Uncle Sam and Toto in our group of Oz characters in two of the Doo Dah Day parades. She was a true wire-haired clown and will always live in our hearts.

Heather adopted 10/30/12
RIP July 23rd, 2015... I thought you would like to know that the extraordinary, beautiful spirit named Heather passed away yesterday from complications of Pancreatitis. Thank you for your work and bringing this girl into my life. It was a brief three years, but filled with love and laughter. She saved me more than I saved her. My heart is still breaking, but when I’m ready I would love to adopt another. I cannot say it enough, thank you for the privilege of knowing such a beautiful spirit as Heather. Your work is so valuable! It not only touches the lives of many dogs, but the owners like myself. Your Doxie-loving Friend, Tara Clevenstine
