For Jack
Jack was with us for three years. His poor heart gave out before any of us were ready. We were lucky to play ball with him everyday of his life. What a great dachshund we found - a real treasure! Our first, but not our last. Karen Martin and the kids we were blessed

Hope
For nearly four years we were blessed with the companionship of our dear Hope, whom we adopted later in her life. She was a great older sister to our other two dachshunds, and taught them a thing or two about lobbying for treats or a warm lap. Hope was happiest when curled beside you on the couch or in bed. She was happy to have me carry her around like a football until my arm tired out. Hope was great with children and babies, and was a neighborhood favorite because she would let anyone pet her. She was a spunky little gal, who could be a tough cookie. She was my little baby. We'll miss our little Hope-a-dope dearly, but we will love her and keep her in our memories forever.

Ms. Charlotte January, 2007
You gave us a year of joy in this household. You were adopted to me as a dachsie, but you were actually a "seal" in disguise....barked like, walked like, and looked like a SEAL!!! Our hearts broke when we had to put you down. Now you are running free, chasing butterflies, and waiting for me to join you...I miss you, my beloved Charlotte!!! You left a huge void in our house....we love you forever and miss you, sweet baby!!! Donna, Cathy, Mindy, Heidi, Summer, & Rocky

Slick Willy February 18, 2007
Your owner passed on, They took you to the vet, They said to "Put you down" SSDR said " Not Yet" You came to live, With Johnny & NanaKim And D.J. and Woody, And brother Duke, to boot. Your little body was old and frail Your hair a thinnin' Your sight diminishing Your tail a waggin' Willy, you were not with us very long, yet the joy and laughter you brought us was immeasurable. When I came home and found you, you tried to get up but you were fixing to go home to be with your owner. While I held you patting and loving you, letting you know it was okay to go home. You knew that your brother Duke and your sister would be taken care of. I so much miss your little bark and the little tail wagging that dusted the floor because you didn't raise up. Know this, you lived a long and loved life. You will be missed by all of us. So until we all meet at the bridge. Johnny

Callie January 6, 2007
We really loved Callie and the two years she was with us, brought great love and pleasure to our lives. Anywhere that Beverly would sit, Callie would be right there and when Bev picked her up, she would cuddle up and look up to Beverly, remain still and just be totally content to be held. Callie was always excited to be with us and enjoyed car trips. Her loss of sight didn't slow Callie down, she would always deliver lots of love and affection. Beverly & Jack Mitchell
