 Gypsy Boy -
December 2005, 12 years old
Gypsy Boy passed after a long, very brave battle with
canine Cushing's disease. He came to us as a rescue boy, so we are not
sure of his age exactly, but Mom does know that his life, before he
found home, was not easy. Fearful and easily startled, not trusting of
children, other dogs, noises, Gyp gradually settled. He loved car rides,
tummy rubs, digging under fences, and found a real talant for canine
agility training. His low centre of gravity made him a natural for the
beam and he, in true dachshund manner, took to the tunnel very well.
Lois (wirehair standard) and Mom will miss you - your beautiful long
read dapple coat and happy tail. Thanks for the years of love. 'Til next
time OXOXs - see you in heaven.

Buffy - December 2005, 11 years old
Buffy, you were loved greatly while you were
here with us.
If tears could make a stairway
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven
And bring you home again.
You were a great companion. Play ball in health now
sweetheart. You will be missed

Noel Marie Cooper - December 2005, 15 years old
Noel was my baby girl. I miss her so much. Every room I
go into in my house I wish she was still there. I have trouble sleeping
at night because she always slept with me. I hate to go to bed at night.
I hate to come home from work because I always went into the bedroom to
tell her I was home and now she's not there. I know that she is not in
anymore pain now and I will see her again one day but it just seems like
it will be so long till I see her again. Noel had cancer and a heart
murmur which she was just recently diagnosed with. I cry myself to sleep
at night because I miss her so much. But now I know she is with her
sister Teddy (German Shepherd mix) who died almost three years ago and
they are keeping each other company. Noel, I miss you and still love
you. (My Piggy Girl).
Love, Mommy

Star - December 2005, 14 years old
We had to let our precious Star go on 19 December 2005,
because of complications from Cushing's disease and a disc problem in
her neck. She was appropriately named 'Star' because she did shine so
brightly in our lives, and now there is darkness where she once resided.
It has been nearly three weeks, and I still cry each and every day -
sometimes several times a day for the loss of my baby girl. There is
such an empty hole in my heart that does not want to heal.
I have had dachshunds for 35 years. Each one has been special
in his or her own way but my little Star spoke to me with her eyes and
listened so intently with all her heart. She was truly a unique and
special sweetheart.
Wait for Momma at the Bridge, Star, when we will all be together
forever.

We miss you so much...words cannot portray the emptiness
in our hearts at your passing, but we know you are chasing leaves and
those pesky lizards in your celestial home as you did here with us...we
love you so.

Max (Nee
Nee) Marchese - December 2005, 5 years, 6 months old
Max, our hearts are breaking every day since
you passed. Daddy and I are always crying - we miss you so
much. I know you are with Brandy and Sammie - God took all of
you much too soon. Why Max? We had you from a seven-week-old
baby.
On Tuesday you were playing ball in the back yard, and by
Thursday you were gone - all in two days. Not fair. I talk to
you every day. I miss you and I do know that someday we will
be together again for good. Max, you are our boy and we love
you so much. I miss you, Max.
Love Mommy, Daddy, Joshua and Rachel

Misty Dawn - December 2005, 19 years old
To my little White Faced Dog! From the time that
I first saw you 'till the time that you left us, I loved you so
much! We only had six years with you, but they were great
years. And I wouldn't change them for anything.
I hope that you are so happy at the Rainbow Bridge. Please play
to your heart's content and don't take anything from anyone. If
I know you as I think, you're probably making sure of that. You
were always the one who no one messed with, but you had such a
sweet loving heart and your kisses could melt even the hardest
people.
So go and run my little girl. Roll in the meadow and bark up a
storm. Please don't forget us and we'll see you when the time
comes. Oh and thank you from the depths of my heart for what
you gave to me and Papa. (you know what I'm talking
about!)
I Love you My Little Misty-Dawn. Along with Papa, Boo, Maddie,
Sosha, Doc, and all the rest of the family.

Sapphyre Pegasus' Xcape SDD - December 2005, 8 years, 5 months, 16 days
old
The Laughing Gnome
Who is this?
With dancing eyes
Of velvet-brown
Or sapphire-blue,
Emerald-green
Or marigold hue -
When chasing after
Imaginary fox
He races away with all my socks!
Who is this?
That slides in paint -
A silver coat
Washed in white
Or dipped in liquid-black;
Copper-bright
Or mahogany,
Limned in stardust
Sleek and wild.
Who is this?
Regal seven inches high,
With springs in his knees
He dreams he is King -
When, still as a statue
He stalks the butterfly;
His nose a probe,
He finds a den
Under the blankets
And burrows in.
Who is this?
Otter-sleek
Or wiry, with aplomb,
Cascading coat;
Timid and meek
Or frenetic with glee
Owned by royalty
Lauded for his bravery
He stole my heart
And hid the key -
My dachshund,
He is the Laughing Gnome.
Love, Mama, Joy's Jamaican Epiphany, DH' Crying Sky Jinx and Jester
